1. Type the following to get a summary of usage: java -jar DeltaTables.jar 2. To see an example type one of: java -jar DeltaTables.jar -ex 1 1 1 1 -apply java -jar DeltaTables.jar -ex 2 1 2 1 -apply java -jar DeltaTables.jar -ex 3 1 3 2 -apply You can play with the number to get different examples. Note: the command line output you see is what I have used for debugging. It did the job for me but for you it maybe sometimes be hard to see the exact hierarchy of the table. Hence you should generate html tables. If the first and third numbers are different than you should use the "-sameName" option. java -jar DeltaTables.jar -ex 4 1 5 2 -apply -sameName 3. To generate html output append "-html". E.g. java -jar DeltaTables.jar -ex 4 1 4 2 -html This will generate OrigTables_4_1.html and DeltaTables_4_2.html. The files will be in the directory where you executed the command. You can open them with a browser. 4. To apply the two html tables write: java -jar DeltaTables.jar OrigTables_4_1.html DeltaTables_4_2.html You can also specify the output file (see "java -jar DeltaTables.jar") 5. To convert all Parnas tables (not delta tables) in the current directory into a format that is accepted by FineFit, please run java -jar DeltaTables.jar -format . -finefit When executing this command please make sure that no delta tables are present in the current directory. FineFit does not use delta tables as input and applying this function to delta tables results in undefined behavior. 6. DeltaTables.jar provides also other options and functions which are displayed when running "java -jar DeltaTables.jar" without any options.
