In the bin folder I have the file I want to change, AppFilters.groovy
and the patch produced by WinMerge- app.patch
When I run...
patch.exe AppFilters.groovy < app.patch
...a command console opens, but is blank and doesn't do anything.
The patch file looks like
58c58
< search(controller:'*', action:'search'){
This is a very small patch because I want to get the workflow working before I do it across a whole directory. However, I can't get even this simple patch to work.
Found the answer buried in the Internet. Windows doesn't like files named "patch". Could be scary, right Windows? So I renamed patch.exe to pch.exe and it ran fine. Depending on the folder you are modifying you may also have to Run As Adminstrator command prompt.
