10.2.0.696 compression always ignored

Upgraded to 10.2.0.696 and now compression seems to always be ignored regardless of the configuration setting.

source database has a table with PAGE compression on table and indexes target does not have compression.

source and target are SQL 2008 R2
red gate compare v10.2.0.696
ignore data compression is OFF

    Hi ahribernik,

    Sorry you are having a problem with Compare. I've been trying to recreate the issue you are reporting but to no avail.

    I've tried with the following objects:

    source

    CREATE TABLE T1
    (c1 int, c2 nvarchar(50) )
    GO

    CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_INDEX_1
    ON T1 (C2)
    GO

    and target


    CREATE TABLE T1
    (c1 int, c2 nvarchar(50) )
    WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE);
    GO

    CREATE NONCLUSTERED INDEX IX_INDEX_1
    ON T1 (C2)
    WITH ( DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE ) ;
    GO


    and the ignore data compression option seems to work. Can you give me a specific example?

    Thanks,
    Neil

    Hi Niel, please try the reverse scenario with the source having compressed objects.

    Hi ahribernik,

    Thanks for your response. I'm still failing to reproduce the problem.

    In your scenario are you using a saved project file from the previously released version of Compare? Does the problem persist if you create a new project or do a comparison without saving it as a project?

    Thanks,
    Neil

    Hi Niel,

    I can repeat the behavior even with a new project

    In an effort to provide you with a script I found out that this did not occur if i created 2 new databases and tables to compare.

    I still however experience the problem with my existing database to a new target database.

    Could this be a cache issue? Is it shared with SQL Source Control (I am experiencing a similar problem with that also)?
