Dear all,

Is it possible to use a custom comparison scope instead of the DefaultComparisonScope in the IDE? If possible, are there any leads of which code needs to be adapted?
I need to prune the scope for the comparison to skip some elements that will never match.

Kind Regards,
Rolf

Hi Rolf,

afaik, it is currently only possible to use a custom implementation of the IComparisonScope when you invoke EMF Compare using the API. There is no extension point that allows to replace the default comparison scope when EMF Compare is invoked through the compare UI.

If your main goal is to ignore certain parts of your model in the matching phase, you could do that in a customized match engine instead (see how to override the default match engine).

Hope this helps,

Philip
