Gets the IEqualityComparer<T> that is used to determine equality of keys for the dictionary.
public:
property System::Collections::Generic::IEqualityComparer<TKey> ^ Comparer { System::Collections::Generic::IEqualityComparer<TKey> ^ get(); };public System.Collections.Generic.IEqualityComparer<TKey> Comparer { get; }member this.Comparer : System.Collections.Generic.IEqualityComparer<'Key>Public ReadOnly Property Comparer As IEqualityComparer(Of TKey)The IEqualityComparer<T> generic interface implementation that is used to determine equality of keys for the current Dictionary<TKey,TValue> and to provide hash values for the keys.
Dictionary<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 EqualityComparer<T>.Default is used.
Getting the value of this property is an O(1) operation.
