Public API and Backward Incompatible Changes

  1. The problem with redisplaying changed content in a document occurred when there were already other Revisions in the documents being compared.

    Revision - changes received when comparing documents using built-in Word tools.

    To solve this problem, new ShowRevisions property was created that allows you to disable the display of these Revisions in the resulting document. An example of the code for using the new property is presented below.

using (Comparer comparer = new Comparer(sourcePath))
{
    comparer.Add(targetPath);
    CompareOptions options = new CompareOptions() {ShowRevisions = false};
    comparer.Compare(resultPath, options);
}
