michael <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |INTENTIONAL Status|CONFIRMED |RESOLVED --- Comment #2 from michael <[email protected]> --- After examining this I have determined it is not technically feasible for kdiff3 to support this. Bugs such as this https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-15261 are the reason. Duplicating code in the form of direct c/c++ style I/O operations is not a practical solution. KDiff3's primary function of comparing normal files is not compromised by lack of pipe/redirect support. Interestingly trying this syntax with real files does results in kdiff3 completely ignoring the redirect. This is why explicit parameters are used. The specific example used here and similar attempts to directly pipe command output will now generate the intended error instead of sending a bogus file name to KIO/Qt. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
