Hey all,
I am currently researching ways to compare databases via an XSD schema.
I wrote a small app that creates a dataset from a database and exports
that dataset to XSD. This gives me an XSD file with tables and
relationships representing the entire database.
At this point, I am trying to find ways to compare these schemas. Does
anybody know of a way to do this easily and to record differences if
there are any?
Also, any information on comparing databases using any method would be
greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

My knowledge on XSD is weak, so I skip that question. For comparing
databases in general, a common recommendation is Red Gate's SQL Compare,
although I have never used it myself.

I actually tested their software and it was quite good, but we can't use
it because of their licensing. They even provide an API that can be
used in .NET, but their licensing methods are terrible...read the fine
print.

Hello. I have an information question. In my work I often have to
compare databases between releases in order to upgrade them to needed

And I am looking for software that could do that. It doesn't have to
be free, but have to be good.
I need to be able to compare table structures, amount of rows,
procedures, triggers.
I found one: Red Gate , but I am not sure that it is the best in the
market, and it is...

I am trying to determine the changes an application makes to a database.
The plan is to copy the existing schema (active) to a reference schema, run
the application and then diff the table data between the reference and the
a active schema. I have found one software vendor who has a tool to do
this, but it will only do one table at a time (interactively); I have more
then 300 and will run this a few times.
One other way of determining...

Is there a way to compare two databases one being an old
database and the second being a new database, I will
update the old database's objects to match the new database's
objects?
Is there SQL code that could do this easily?
How do you do this if you deal with the same scenario?
Thank you

I have two tables and I want to compare these two tables with a query( ie.
"select * from A where B.key = A.key") and the result will be stored in a
3rd table (table C). is this possible? If necessary, I can create the schema
for the 3rd table (C) since it'll be exactly like table A. But I'm more
interested in being able to store the resulting set into another table.
Thanks.

Hello,
How can I compare or visually check the differences between two XML schemas.
Let us say I have two files like "version_1.xsd" and "version_2.xsd" , how
would I programtically find out the differences between these two XSD files?.
Is there a way to do this in .NET?
Thanks,

I have 2 datatables. They are identical. I want to compare them by
cell's content. They are all same.
But dt1 == dt2 or
dt1.GetHashCode() == dt2.GetHashCode() doesn 't work.
There are big amount of rows in theese datatables . So i don 't want
to enumerate each rows. This is not efficient and unacceptable for my
current application.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
