Hei Bodi,
Thanks for the link, will take a look at that. Using memcpy is to strict. We want to know if the two xml files are equal but want to ignore any whitespace differences or different ordering of attributes or different namespace prefix etc. kind regards, LarsA ________________________________ Fra: Bodi Ngwala <bodi.ngw...@ecrebo.com> Sendt: 7. juli 2017 14:20 Til: c-users@xerces.apache.org Emne: Re: Compare xml files Hi LarsA Not sure if Xerces has that but check here : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5169313/need-to-find-the-difference-between-two-xml-files-in-c [https://cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/stackoverflow/img/apple-touch-i...@2.png?v=73d79a89bded]<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5169313/need-to-find-the-difference-between-two-xml-files-in-c> Need to find the difference between two XML files in C++ ...<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5169313/need-to-find-the-difference-between-two-xml-files-in-c> stackoverflow.com Is there any library for this, or does anyone have anything done in Xerces, or any link on how to do this, or any API or any way to do this in Xerces? (or check Xerces c++ samples which ship in the API zip - maybe one of them does this or similar?) Or if you just want your unit test to inform whether 2 files are identical then i would just use memcmp( ): http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/byte/memcmp std::memcmp - cppreference.com<http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/byte/memcmp> en.cppreference.com Return value. Negative value if the first differing byte (reinterpreted as unsigned char) in lhs is less than the corresponding byte in rhs. 0 if all count bytes of ... (Check file sizes, if different then end-of-test, if not different sizes, then read them in separate memory buffers and compare using std::memcmp( ), if it returns 0, they're identical, if not 0 then they're different) All the best, BN On 7 July 2017 at 13:04, Lars <laasu...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > > Does Xerces-C++ 3.1.4 contain a method to compare two xml files?
