Comparing XML

Introduction

This section describes the support for DeltaXML's DCP format provided by this extension. DCP is used by DeltaXML's XML Compare solution to help tailor a comparison for a specific document type or requirement.

Extending standard XML editor features

You can create or update Simple DCP files with any XML editor with XML schema 1.0, or (preferably) XML Schema 1.1 support, like Oxygen XML. To help with more complex XML comparison features, DCP supports features such as the input parameter referencing and XPath expressions. This extension includes specific support for these features.
