Hi all, in EDP 3.3, I am comparing two subdirs, where each has the same filelist, the file sizes are the same, but the file dates are different. EDP should be marking them all as 'Newer'/'Older', but for the first two, it sasy 'Same'.
See here for the HTML diff report, which matches exactly what I see in EDP's window.
Is this a bug?
Some files with diff. dates listed as Same, not Newer/Older

Hello, I'm not entirely sure how that problem is relevant to mine, since I am telling EDP to not look at the files at all, just compare based on the Dirctory info. Here are my options: edp1.gifpsguru wrote:Yes, it is a bug in 3.3. See the last reply in

Anyway, if you say it is the same problem, that's fine. I'll look out for the next beta.
cheers

You are right, it's a different "problem". What happened in your case is that your have "Consider files with same CRC identical" option enabled. As a result, your top 2 pairs are IDENTICAL by their CRCs, and they are marked as such. The last files are different, and their are marked as NEWER and OLDER.
Perhaps a better way would be, for identical files, to change the color of their Time column to NEWER/OLDER colors, as it's done for DIFFERENT files when "Perform full file comparison" option is on.
