Hi, I was wondering if you have any examples/docs on how to do a compare with and object-key-order-insensitive comparer?

thanks

We can say documentation is lacking indeed ;) can you provide an example of what want to compare?
if you want to compare array items based on keys different than the index you can implement IArrayKeySelector and pass it in the contructor of JTokenComparer(IArrayKeySelector)

It gets called for every array so you need to check if you are comparing the correct type.

example implementation:

public object SelectArrayKey(JToken token, int index)
{
	if (IsSpecificArrayIWantToCompare(token))
	{
		return token.Value<string>("KeyValueOnObject");
	}
	
	return index; //default
}

how to filter all the differences and get new and old values

[darsh142012]

i mean i need object with only diffrences with old and new values and few more properties only.

It is possible to do this, have a look at the "ComparrisonResultTextExporter.cs" it recursively loops through all the comparison results to print a report. However there is no functionality build in that returns only the difference. It contains additional information about the comparison performed.
