BinDiff is a cross-platform diff utility for binary files. BinDiff intelligently compares two versions of a binary file, and creates a diff file that contains the differences between the two files.

An example: you could use BinDiff when you regularly have to send updates of a large file over some communications line: instead of sending a complete update each time, you could send the complete file only once, and after that you could create a diff file between the original file and the updated file.

At the receiving side, this diff file can be used to create the updated file from the original file.

Creating a diff file is quite processor- and memory intensive. On the other hand, using a diff file to create the updated file is a very lightweight and fast process.
