XMLComparator is not just any XML Comparator, this tool is created with a purpose to enable Siebel CRM Configurations Managers / Siebel Developers / Admins to Compare two different Siebel Environments using the Siebel Object XML Export. This provides the capability of identifying the newly added / edited Sibel Product/ Product Promotions / Bundles or any line item. This offering is custom made for the purpose of working with the Siebel products Export.

This Work have aged for almost 7 Years. I created this tool during my first 6 Months of Work Experience and i moved out of that space. Since i started to collect all the engaging/interesting work i have done. Even-thought i have gained a lot of work experience, i cherish this beginner code and wanted to have it as-is without having any influence from the new qualified me. Thats the reason why the code doesn't have any logger, poor Object handling and a very basic programming paradigm approach.I have just refurbished this code into a Maven Project.
