Method Details

compareContent

public static int compareContent(Resource r1,
                                 Resource r2,
                                 boolean text)
            throws IOException
Compare the content of two Resources. A nonexistent Resource's content is "less than" that of an existing Resource; a directory-type Resource's content is "less than" that of a file-type Resource.
Parameters:
r1 - the Resource whose content is to be compared.
r2 - the other Resource whose content is to be compared.
text - true if the content is to be treated as text and differences in kind of line break are to be ignored.
Returns:
a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as the first argument is less than, equal to, or greater than the second.

Ant 1.7

contentEquals

public static boolean contentEquals(Resource r1,
                                    Resource r2,

            throws IOException
Compares the contents of two Resources.
Parameters:
r1 - the Resource whose content is to be compared.
r2 - the other Resource whose content is to be compared.
text - true if the content is to be treated as text and differences in kind of line break are to be ignored.
Returns:
true if the content of the Resources is the same.
