DBForge Schema Compare

Post by goodbadboys » Wed 26 Jun 2019 00:16

Hi Members,

I am trying to evaluate Schema Compare tool for our organization & this tool looks good but I have below concerns.

We generate our reports from command line so Is there any way I can add object filter to command line so I can exclude some of the objects when running the compare like users,roles & schemas etc .I dont see option for object filter when I generate "save command Line".I do have option for comparison options but it just have the filters of options

You could use the 'ExcludeObjectsByMask', 'IgnoreColumnsByMask', 'IncludeObjectsByMas' options:

Also, the *.scomp/*.dcomp file generated in the GUI of dbForge can be used in the command line. It will store the settings you made when generating the file:
