Example 41 Generating a detailed diff report using -approot option

As shown in above examples, warning#2223 is emitted at line 4 and is common in both PDBs. User might want to
ignore such duplicate warnings while comparing two different versions of PDBs, and hence the -approot option
serves the purpose for effective comparison of different PDBs.
6.17 Report options file
All the options that you want to use to generate the report can be consolidated in a single
configuration file using the +opts <file> option. This reduces the clutter on the command line
and provides a single place to specify the customized options. Comment lines can also be inserted
in the +opts configuration file. This option is used for reading reporting options from the specified
<file>. The following example shows the reading of report options from a specific file.
