Introduction

The TwinCAT3 Project Compare Tool (TcProjectCompare) is an application program that can be used to compare and merge TwinCAT3 projects. The tool can be integrated in Visual Studio or used in stand-alone mode.

If a TwinCAT3 project is managed with the help of source code control software (e.g. integrated in Visual Studio), the source control clients can be set so that they automatically call the TcProjectCompare tool in the case of comparing or merging files or projects. Further information on the configuration of source control clients can be found in the section Configuration of the TcProjectCompare for use with source control.
