Iterate tFileList for each file in another tFileList

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

i have the following job:

I need to iterate the tFileList_1 for each file il tFileList_2, because i need to match if the file in the folder of tFileList_1 have the same content of the file present in the folder of tFileList_2.

My job as you see in the image, is not working properly, because the iteration work simultaneously.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance

Nicola

Hi Nicola,

    Since you have to quickly check whether file A and B are matching based on the conditions, the best way is to do the comparison using tFileCompare component.

    Now, if you have to compare multiple input files with multiple lookup files, you will have to loop them in multiple iterations. In the below loop, the input file from FileList1 will be compared in recursive manner with FileList2 files and will provide the output.

      Could you please try this method? You can either match in text or binary mode.
