Research direction

Start by reproducing the timeout with the SPDX file generated from Zephyr and the file from the previous release using the Java Tool. Inspect the comparison command's output and runtime behavior; done means identifying a reproducible cause or documenting a confirmed comparison failure and its conditions.

Hello Team

We are working on comparing SPDX files using Java-Tool by generating one from zephyr and other one from previous release

Looks like compare never finishes and time out

Any one facing similar issue or following any other methods which succeeded the compare ?
