Can Simulink Report Generator XML Comparison be integrated with IBM Synergy?

I would like to use the model comparison to automatically compare what is in the repository to a local copy of the model. The documentation mentions that SVN is supported, but I am wondering if the same applies to Synergy.

Dear Monika,

In MATLAB & Simulink from R2016b there is a plugin that allows you to customize external source control tools to use MATLAB for diff and merge. The documentation for how this works can be found here .

For R2016a and before there is a good chance that the SVN diff integration ( documentation ) you mention will also work with the IBM Rational Synergy client.

To configure your IBM Rational Synergy client it would be best to consult the IBM Rational Synergy documentation or support. From a quick web search it looks like the Rational Synergy Classic client preferences can be configured to use custom diff and merge tools. See, for example, these IBM Rational Synergy support articles:

• How to setup a third party compare tool for use with Rational Synergy
• How to customize Rational Synergy Classic client preferences

It would be great if you could post your experiences of trying this here so that others may benefit. Hope this helps,

Steven
