NoteThis feature is available only for Word documents, PowerPoint, and Open Document presentations.
GroupDocs.Comparison allows you to compare more that two password-protected documents.
To compare several password-protected documents, follow these steps:
- Instantiate the LoadOptions object. Specify source document password.
- Instantiate the Comparer object. Specify the source document path or stream and the LoadOptions object created in the previous step.
- Instantiate another LoadOptions object and specify target document password.
- Call the add() method and specify the target document path or stream and the LoadOptions object created at previous step. Repeat steps 3-4 for every target document.
- Call the compare() method.
The following code snippets shows how to compare several password-protected documents:
import com.groupdocs.comparison.Comparer;
import com.groupdocs.comparison.words.revision.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.nio.file.Path;
// ...
try (Comparer comparer = new Comparer("source.docx", new LoadOptions("source-password"))) {
comparer.add("target.docx", new LoadOptions("target-password"));
comparer.add("target2.docx", new LoadOptions("target-password"));
comparer.add("target3.docx", new LoadOptions("target-password"));
final Path resultPath = comparer.compare("result.docx");
}
import com.groupdocs.comparison.Comparer;
import com.groupdocs.comparison.words.revision.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
// ...
try (Comparer comparer = new Comparer(sourceInputStream, new LoadOptions("source-password"))) {
comparer.add(targetInputStream1, new LoadOptions("target-password"));
comparer.add(targetInputStream2, new LoadOptions("target-password"));
comparer.add(targetInputStream3, new LoadOptions("target-password"));
final Path resultPath = comparer.compare(resultInputStream);
}
