This layout allows you to easily identify and focus on a group of related changes. Figure 2. Two-Way Differences. Highlighting Colors The differences are also highlighted in several colors, depending on the type of change, and dynamic lines connect the compared fragments in the middle section between the two panes.
Gray - Identifies an addition of a node in the left side your outgoing changes. Blue - Identifies an addition of a node in the right side incoming changes. Lighter Shade - Identifies blocks of changes that can be merged in their entirety.
Darker Shade - Identifies specific changes within the blocks that can be merged more precisely. Other notes for pasting fragments: As long as the fragment is more than 10 characters, the application will attempt to automatically detect the content type.
If one of those content types is detected, the fragments will be displayed with syntax highlights. If you save modified fragments, a dialog box opens that allows you to save the changes as a new document. Navigate Differences To navigate through differences, do one of the following: Use the navigation buttons on the toolbar or in the Compare menu.
Select a block of differences by clicking its small colored marker in the overview ruler located in the right-most part of the window. At the top of the overview ruler there is a success indicator that turns green where there are no differences, or red if differences are found.
Click a colored area in between the two text editors. Editing Actions You can edit the files directly in either editing pane. A variety of actions are available on the toolbar and in the various menus these same actions are also available in the contextual menu in both editing panes. The tool also includes some inline actions to help you merge, copy, or remove changes. When you select a change, the following inline action widgets are available, depending on the type of change: Append left change to right and Append right change to left Copies the content of the selected change from one side and appends it on the other, according to the content of the corresponding change.
As a result, the side where the arrow points to will contain the changes from both sides. Copy change from left to right and Copy change from right to left Replaces the content of a change from one side with the content of the corresponding change from the other side. Remove change Rejects the change on the particular side and preserves the particular content on the other side. Two-Way Diff Algorithms Oxygen XML Editor offers the following two-way diff algorithms to compare files or fragments: Auto - Selects the most appropriate algorithm, based on the compared content and its size selected by default.
Characters - Computes the differences at character level, meaning that it compares two files or fragments looking for identical characters. This algorithm is not available when the file comparison is in Author comparison mode. Words - Computes the differences at word level, meaning that it compares two files or fragments looking for identical words. Lines - Computes the differences at line level, meaning that it compares two files or fragments looking for identical lines of text.
Oxygen XML Editor also includes a three-way comparison feature to help you solve conflicts and merge changes between multiple modifications. It is especially helpful for teams who have multiple authors editing and committing the same documents. It provides a comparison between a local change, another change, and the original base revision.
Some additional advantages include: Visualize and merge content that was modified by you and another member of your team. Marks differences correctly even when the document structure is rearranged. Allows you to merge XML-relevant modifications. Figure 3. Three-Way Comparison. Compare Files To perform a three-way comparison, follow these steps: Open a file in the left panel and the file you want to compare it to in the right panel.
Click the Three-Way Comparison button on the toolbar and select the base original file in the Base field. To highlight the differences, click the Perform File Differencing button on the toolbar. The resulting comparison will show you differences between the two files, as well as differences between either of them and the base original file.
Figure 4. Three-Way Differences. That post suggests doing a canonical XML sort then doing a diff. The following should work for you if you are on Linux, Mac, or if you have Windows with something like Cygwin installed:. For what it's worth, I have created a java tool or kotlin actually for effecient and configurable canonicalization of xml files. It does support sorting nested lists - sorting innermost lists before outer.
But it cannot reliably sort arbitrary levels of recursively nested lists. If you have such needs you can - after having used this tool - compare the sorted byte arrays of the results. You can get it here: XMLNormalize. The XML samples are fundamentally different. Even though the content and the hierarchy may be identical the relationships between peers is different.
If you want to discount the nature of relationships between peer entities then you will likely need custom software. I recommend finding some simple open-source XML aware diff tool and adding the additional requirements that you need. Both will produce a human readable XML diff document.
