User problem: ----------------------------------- The versioning diff result is often hard to evaluate. User need: ----------------------------------- View the VCS diff through Java eyes - i.e. Method added, Method body changed, Documentation changed, etc. Product requirement: ----------------------------------- Structural diff (Java structure)
Closed because this issue is obsolete and current NetBeans already has a better and friendly diff result.
I do not think this issue is obsolete (though it may be WONTFIX); the IDE still displays a generic diff view, not indicating structural changes like "method added" as in the original request.
Obsolete target milestone. Change from 7.2 to TBD
