Track Changes DiffEngine with MVC

[Jim]

Hello.  Newbie here.

I really need the track changes feature that is in the AJAX rad editor.  I understand that under the hood this really uses the DiffEngine class to generate the annotated difference between two strings.

I am using MVC, and I understand that using RadEditor is really only supported in non-mvc apps, but I am hoping to just use the DiffEngine and i will take care of rendering the resulting "difference" markup result.

I would like to know how i can use the diffengine class inside an mvc app. 



thanks,
jim

Hi Jeff,

The DiffEngine class was intended to be used along with the Track Changes dialog, which is obsolete and currently not officially supported.

On a side note, the DiffEngine is not a product of Telerik and it is a third-party one, integrated in the RadEditor logic. You can examine more about it in http://www.mathertel.de/Diff/.
