The difference between this function and xdiff_string_bdiff(3) is different algorithm used which should result in faster execution and smaller diff produced. This function works with both text and binary data. Resulting patch can be later applied using xdiff_string_bpatch(3)/xdiff_file_bpatch(3). For more details about differences between algorithm used please check libxdiff website.
PARAMETERS
o $old_data - First string with binary data. It acts as "old" data. o $new_data - Second string with binary data. It acts as "new" data.
