Method ReflectiveCompare

Source/Editor/Utilities/Extensions.cs:22–58

Gets a list of MemberComparison values that represent the fields and/or properties that differ between the two objects. Type of object to compare. First object to compare. Second object to compare. Returns list of structs with all different fields a
