I am looking for an XML comparison tool that will parse the XML before diffing for Linux (RHEL 5.7, Gnome). The files that I am diffing are 99% different in a line comparison but 85% the same after parsing.

  • I have found ExamXML Pro which appears to be a tool that does the job well. It is Windows only though.
  • OxygenXML Diff is built for Linux but does not seem to be able to handle XML that is arranged in a different order but structured the same.

There are many questions on Stack overflow about XML diffing or comparison tools but most are older or not specific to the Linux environment.

  • DiffDog from Altova does make assosiation between the nodes but is a windows only app. Eclipse file comparison is similar to DiffDog but is less thorough. The only application that I have found that does the job well is ExamXML. – user1161495 Jan 27 '12 at 17:24
  • I am curious why a moderator deleted my answer, which answered the question. – austincheney Jun 16 '12 at 15:41
