DTSXMLDiffAlgorithm Enumeration

 

Specifies which algorithm to use when comparing XML documents.

Namespace:   Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.XMLTask

public enum class DTSXMLDiffAlgorithm

Member nameDescription
Auto

Default. Chooses the comparison algorithm for you depending on the size and assumed number of changes in the compared documents.

Fast

Compares the two XML documents by traversing the XML tree and comparing it node-by-node. This algorithm is very fast but may produce less precise results. For example, it may detect both an add and remove operation on a node instead of a move operation.

Precise

Compares files based on an algorithm for finding the editing distance between trees, also known as Zhang-Shasha algorithm. This algorithm gives very precise results but it may be very slow on large XML documents with many changes.
