Merge gbXML files

I have a use case where I need to merge two partially useful gbXML files into one useful gbXML file.

  1. gbXML A (File A) >> Good Openings but Bad Detailing,
  2. gbXML B (File B) >> No Openings but Good Detailing,
  3. gbXML C (File C) >> Good Openings and Good Detailing.

Using a text editor with the aid of the Spider gbXML Viewer I have 'successfully' merged File A with File B to produce File C.

Is there a gbXML utility available that automates the type of workflow described above or that could be used to develop an automated merging workflow?

Thanks for any direction the community may be able to provide.

Is there a gbXML utility available that automates the type merging of workflow described above elements like openings or that could be used to develop an automated merging workflow?
