Compare your files (Windows)

The DeltaXML evaluation software AMI has sample files in each product directory for you to get started. In addition, we have setup three comparisons for you to run and ensure you get a useful result. The sample files are lists of well-known animals and stored in the samples folder under the root of each product directory. The files have some differences in the content which will be output in the result file demonstrating how we report change in the XML structure:
\Animals2.xml
\Animals3.xml

The three comparisons, which are batch files that can be easily run by double clicking on them, all compare these two animal xml files and product a result file in the same location:
\Results.xml

Run a comparison

Simply double click any of these three batch files to get a result:

Do-Compare-Java
This is a basic comparison of two files in the samples folder, Animals2.xml and Animals3.xml, which produces a result stored in the file Results.xml.

Do-Compare-Java-DiffReport
The same comparison is run with the result displayed in a HTML browser showing the changes highlighted. You can use the HTML user interface to navigate the results.

Do-Compare-Java-DiffReportSBS
The same comparison is run with the result displayed in a HTML browser showing a Side by Side report and changes highlighted. You can use the HTML user interface to navigate the results.

Diff XML (Do-Compare-Java)

The Do-Compare-Java result produces a file which can be opened in any IDE, text editor or suitable XML viewer and will look something like this with change marked up in the xml.

Get a diff report (Do-Compare-Java-DiffReport)

When running the Diff Report you will get an HTML results file which includes an HTML GUI with navigation and the result marked up showing items added or removed.

Get a diff report side by side (Do-Compare-Java-DiffReportSBS)

The Diff Report displayed Side by Side also provides an HTML results file which includes an HTML GUI with navigation and the two input files displayed alongside each other.

Why not try your own files?

Upload your own files to the server to start getting comparison or merge results and try out our configuration pipelines to improve your results.

Pipeline Configuration

One of the key reasons DeltaXML software is so powerful is the ability to configure the comparison pipeline. There are two options available DCP, which offers predefined extension points for aspects such as table control, and DXP for completely bespoke configuration. To get started with more information please check the following documentation:
