External Compare - Eclipse Plugin
Launch an external diff tool like WinMerge in Eclipse
Eclipse comes with an internal diff / compare editor, but if you prefer a third-party one, this plugin opens an external merge or diff tool for you. After you open two versions of a file in the internal eclipse compare editor, this plugin either opens an external diff tool automatically or you can choose that this plugin opens the external diff tool after you press a button in the toolbar of the internal compare editor. Furthermore the plugin can (optional) format java code before the compare. This simplifies the compare if the code of 2 versions of a file is different formatted. -

Delta Patcher is a GUI software
Delta Patcher is a free, open-source application designed for creating and applying xdelta binary patches through a graphical interface.

The software is particularly useful for game modifications, translation patches, and software updates. Users can select an original file and a patch to generate the modified version. It also supports creating new patch files by comparing original and modified data. Advanced options include primary and secondary compression settings and checksum verification. Unlike many graphical frontends, Delta Patcher includes its patching functionality without requiring an external xdelta3 executable. Built with C++ and wxWidgets, it supports Windows, macOS, and Linux. -

Duck2Dox
Convert Autoduck markup to Doxygen
This Python script is designed to convert Autoduck source code markup in C++ style comments to Doxygen style markup. The output is ready to be used with Doxygen. The output directory is a mirror of the input directory (the directory is copied before any conversion takes place) so the input remains untouched. The output directory only contains code that has been converted, and all non-supported files are removed from the output directory. You can then use a directory diff tool, like WinMerge, to review the changes. See http://www.literateprogramming.com/autoduck.pdf or http://helpmaster.info/hlp-developmentaids-autoduck.htm for information about Autoduck. See www.doxygen.org for information about Doxygen. -
