FileType
Inheritance: java.lang.Object, java.lang.Enum
All Implemented Interfaces: com.aspose.ms.System.IEquatable
public enum FileType extends Enum<FileType> implements System.IEquatable<FileType>
The FileType enum represents the type of a file used in the document comparison process.
It defines different file types such as Word documents, PDF files, and more. Provides methods to obtain list of all file types supported by GroupDocs.Comparison, detect file type by extension etc. Use this enum to specify the file type when working with the GroupDocs.Comparison library.
- Learn more about file formats supported by GroupDocs.Comparison: Full list of supported document formats
- Learn more about getting supported file types in Java: How to get supported file formats in Java
Example usage:
// Set the file type to Word document
final FileType fileType = FileType.DOCX;
// Perform comparison using the specified file type
final LoadOptions loadOptions = new LoadOptions(fileType);
try (Comparer comparer = new Comparer(sourceFile, loadOptions)) {
comparer.add(targetFile);
comparer.compare(resultFile, compareOptions);
}
