Equals(TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone,TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone) Method

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Shared Function Equals( _
   ByVal left As TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone, _
   ByVal right As TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone _
) As Boolean

'Usage
 
Dim left As TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone
Dim right As TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone
Dim value As Boolean
 
value = TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone.Equals(left, right)

public static bool Equals( 
   TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone left,
   TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone right
)

public:
static bool Equals( 
   TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone left,
   TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone right
)

Parameters

left: A TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone instance.
right: A TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone instance.

Return Value

A boolean is returned that indicates the result of the comparison.

To determine whether two periods are equal, the beginning and ending bounds between the left and right operands are compared. The two periods are equal if the following is true:

    left.Begin == right.Begin && left.End == right.Begin

The value returned is true if the left is equal to the right, false otherwise.

Return Value Description

Return Value	Description
`true`	left and right are TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone.Null -or- left is equal to right.
`false`	left or right is Null -or- left is not equal to right.

true

left and right are TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone.Null

-or-

left is equal to right.

false

left or right is Null

-or-

left is not equal to right.

The following code example uses various comparison methods and operators.

C#

TdDate  later = new TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone(
                       new TdTimestampWithTimeZone(2010, 8, 31, 0, 0, 0, 0, new TimeSpan(8, 0, 0)), 
                       new TdDate(2010, 10, 25, 12, 30, 30, 0, new TimeSpan(8, 0, 0)));
            
TdDate earlier = new TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone(
                       new TdTimestampWithTimeZone(2007, 8, 31, 8, 0, 30, 0, new TimeSpan(8, 0, 0)), 
                       new TdTimestampWithTimeZone(2007, 11, 12, 20, 31, 0, 0, new TimeSpan(8, 0, 0)));
 
// The following comparison methods and operators are equivalent
if (false == TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone.Equals(later, earlier) ||
    late != earlier ||
    true == TdPeriodTimestampWithTimeZone.NotEquals(later, earlier) )
{
   Console.WriteLine("later does not equal earlier");
}
