Using the XmlDiff and XmlPatch Executables
The XmlDiff.exe executable is a thin wrapper
around the XmlDiff class. It allows you to compute
the differences between two XML files on disk and optionally place
the resulting XDL Diffgram in a third file. The following list shows
the command-line options to XmlDiff.exe:
-
/o Ignore child order (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreChildOrder)-
/c Ignore comments (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreComments)-
/p Ignore processing instructions (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnorePI)-
/w Ignore whitespace (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreWhitespace)-
/n Ignore namespaces (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreNamespaces)-
/r Ignore prefixes (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnorePrefixes)-
/x Ignore XML declaration (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreDecl)-
/d Ignore DTD (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreDtd)-
/f The files contain XML fragments (
XmlDiffOptions.IgnoreComments)-
/t Use fast algorithm (
XmlDiffAlgorithm.Fast)-
/z Use precise algorithm (
XmlDiffAlgorithm.Precise)
If no command-line options are given, the
XmlDiffOptions.None and
XmlDiffAlgorithm.Auto are assumed, and it is
assumed that the files do not contain XML fragments.
Like XmlDiff.exe, XmlPatch.exe is a thin wrapper around the
XmlPatch class. XmlPatch.exe allows you to patch an XML file
with a given XDL Diffgram, and optionally place the resulting patched
XML document in a new file on disk. Since any options used in the
creation of the Diffgram are written to the
xd:diffgram element’s
options and fragments
attributes, there are no other command-line options to XmlPatch.exe.
