I have made a funtion to compare text files line by line, where timestamps and jobnumbers are replaced for a identical string. By lack of experience I'm not sure if this is the best way to do this.
if (row < comparedFile.Count)
{
var regexJobNumber = @"([0-9]{4})";
var regexTimeStamp = @"([0-9]{8}_[0-9]{6})";
var input = line;
var removeTimestamp = Regex.Matches(input, regexTimeStamp).Cast<object>().Aggregate(input, (current, Match) => Regex.Replace(current, regexTimeStamp, "<TimeStamp>"));
var removeJobnumber = Regex.Matches(removeTimestamp, regexJobNumber).Cast<object>().Aggregate(removeTimestamp, (current, Match) => Regex.Replace(current, regexJobNumber, "<JobNummer>"));
var input2 = comparedFile[row];
var removeTimestamp2 = Regex.Matches(input2, regexTimeStamp).Cast<object>().Aggregate(input2, (current, Match) => Regex.Replace(current, regexTimeStamp, "<TimeStamp>"));
var removeJobnumber2 = Regex.Matches(removeTimestamp2, regexJobNumber).Cast<object>().Aggregate(removeTimestamp2, (current, Match) => Regex.Replace(current, regexJobNumber, "<JobNummer>"));
if (!removeJobnumber.Equals(removeJobnumber2))
{
var rowcount = row + 1;
differenceList.Add("Difference found on rownumber: " + rowcount);
}
row++;
}
