138File::Compare - Compare files or filehandles
139
140=head1 SYNOPSIS
141
142 use File::Compare;
143
144 if (compare("file1","file2") == 0) {
145 print "They're equal\n";
146 }
147
148=head1 DESCRIPTION
149
150The File::Compare::compare function compares the contents of two
151sources, each of which can be a file or a file handle. It is exported
152from File::Compare by default.
153
154File::Compare::cmp is a synonym for File::Compare::compare. It is
155exported from File::Compare only by request.
156
3724d6f4 157File::Compare::compare_text does a line by line comparison of the two
167e09eb 158files. It stops as soon as a difference is detected. compare_text()
159accepts an optional third argument: This must be a CODE reference to
160a line comparison function, which returns 0 when both lines are considered
161equal. For example:
162
163 compare_text($file1, $file2)
164
165is basically equivalent to
166
167 compare_text($file1, $file2, sub {$_[0] ne $_[1]} )
3724d6f4 168
5f05dabc 169=head1 RETURN
170
171File::Compare::compare return 0 if the files are equal, 1 if the
172files are unequal, or -1 if an error was encountered.
