      Please paste these into 2 different files and compare them :

      File1----->11111111111111111111111111111111

      File2----->00000000000000000000000000000000

      They both match

        are you using the latest compare plugin version?
        Which npp and os version?
        And it is probably better to report it at https://github.com/pnedev/compare-plugin/issues
        Although @pnedev, from time to time visits this community.

        Cheers
        Claudia

          Hello, @dinesh-j-prakash, @claudia-frank and All,

          You’re quite right. I’ve just tried with the last Compare v2.0.0 plugin, and N++ v7.5.1, on my Win XP SP3 laptop. Indeed, there a (small) bug !

          I noticed that 3 conditions are mandatory to reproduce this bug :

          • Each line must have a same amount of characters, whatever they are

          • The length, of each line, must be a multiple of 32 ( so length must be 32, 64, 96,… ) !! ??

          • All characters, of each line, must be identical

          I do hope, @pnedev that you’ll be able to sort it out, easily ;-))

          Best Regards,

          guy038

            Hello all,

            @Dinesh-J-Prakash , thank you for reporting this.
            @Claudia-Frank , thank you for commenting.
            @guy038 , thank you for the detailed investigation.

            This problem has already been reported in the GitHub project page (https://github.com/pnedev/compare-plugin/issues/128)
            and I have already fixed it in the development branch. I’m preparing a new release but since it is a major plugin rework and I’m quite busy these days it is taking longer than I thought. I hope I’ll be able to release the new version in month or two.
            Just FYI the problem was with the hashing function used in the compare process.

            BR
