Equals(Object) Method

Compares this instance and to determine whether they are equal.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Overrides Function Equals( _
   ByVal obj As Object _
) As Boolean

'Usage
 
Dim instance As TdIntervalYear
Dim obj As Object
Dim value As Boolean
 
value = instance.Equals(obj)

public override bool Equals( 
   object obj
)

public:
bool Equals( 
   Object^ obj
) override

Parameters

obj: TdIntervalYear that will be compared to this instance of TdIntervalYear.

Return Value

true if the two TdIntervalYears are equal, false otherwise.

Remarks

The return value is true if the instance is equal to the obj, false otherwise.

Return Value Description

Return Value	Description
`true`	This instance and obj are TdIntervalYear.Null -or- This instance is equal to obj.
`false`	This instance is not equal to obj -or- This instance is not Null and obj is Null -or- This instance is Null and obj is not Null -or- obj is a null reference.

true

This instance and obj are TdIntervalYear.Null

-or-

This instance is equal to obj.

false

This instance is not equal to obj

-or-

This instance is not Null and obj is Null

-or-

This instance is Null and obj is not Null

-or-

obj is a null reference.

Example

The following code example uses various comparison methods and operators.

// Create a TdIntervalYear with 5 years and a precision of 4
TdIntervalYear firstInterval = new TdIntervalYear(5, 4);
// Create a TdIntervalYear with 20 years and a precision of 4
Object intervalObj = new TdIntervalYear(20, 4);
 
// The following comparison methods and operators are equivalent
if (false == TdIntervalYear.Equals(firstInterval, (TdIntervalYear)intervalObj) ||
    firstInterval != (TdIntervalYear)intervalObj ||
    false == firstInterval.Equals(intervalObj) )
{
   Console.WriteLine(“firstInterval does not equal intervalObj”);
}

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019
