Question

Does anybody know a tool or C# API that compares two different full texts and display and highlight the differences and render in HTML??

I should be bale to give two sets of text to the tool or API and it should return me with the highlighted difference.

for eg. first set of full text is "this is test text for the difference highlighting"

second set of full text is "this is live text for the difference highlighting and should render the html".

The output returned should highlight the difference between the two.. "this is test text for the difference highlighting"

"this is live text for the difference highlighting and should render the html".

Answer 2

I would think many commercial compare tools can do that. I use Beyond Compare, and it can do exactly that.
