如何在Java中检测两个文本文件是否相同

Question

I would like to detect if file1.xml is different than file1.xmlCheck is there a way to do this in java?

I am planning on having a guid as the only difference in the files.

Answer 1

Here's a link to a list of Open Source XML diff tools written in Java

Answer 2

You might as well try the obvious and read the files in. You can read them character by character, block by block (say 1024 or 4096 characters at a time), or line by line and compare the strings you get.

If you know the exact location of your GUID and it's near the beginning or whatnot, you can build that into your comparison as well.

If you want line-by-line and you're using Java 1.5 or newer, look into java.util.Scanner ; otherwise look into java.io.FileReader for character block reading.

(Note: If you don't have Java 1.5 or newer, you're stuck with FileReader)

Answer 3

您可以在两个文件上运行md5并比较这些值。
