ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue>.Comparer Property

Definition

Gets the IEqualityComparer<T> that is used to determine equality of keys for the dictionary.

C#
public System.Collections.Generic.IEqualityComparer<TKey> Comparer { get; }

Property Value

The IEqualityComparer<T> generic interface implementation that is used to determine equality of keys for the current ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue> and to provide hash values for the keys.

Remarks

ConcurrentDictionary<TKey,TValue> requires an equality implementation to determine whether keys are equal. You can specify an implementation of the IEqualityComparer<T> generic interface by using a constructor that accepts a comparer parameter; if you do not specify one, the default generic equality comparer Default is used.
