since your output is already in two xml files, let's say File 1 is one.xml and File 2 is two.xml.
You can do the below. Also there are other ways also available eg. using File::Stat module as well.
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my $filesize1 = 0; my $filesize2 = 0; if (-e 'one.xml'){ $filesize1 = -s 'one.xml'; } if ( -e 'two.xml'){ $filesize2 = -s 'two.xml'; } if ( $filesize1 == $filesize2) { print "File sizes are equal\n"; }else{ print "File sizes are not equal\n"; }
