Load file from stream

In case when you have the file in the form of a stream. To avoid the overhead of saving stream as a file on disk, GroupDocs.Comparison provides a way to work with file streams directly. 

The following are the steps to be followed:

• Obtain file stream; 
• Pass opened source stream to Comparerclass constructor or pass opened target stream to addmethod.

Following code snippet describes how to load file from stream.

Comparer comparer = new Comparer("C:\\source.pdf");
try {
    comparer.add("C:\\target.pdf");
    comparer.compare(new FileOutputStream("C:\\result.pdf"));
} finally {
    comparer.dispose();
}
