// Notice they are not reference equal, in other words
// they are do not refer to the same object
if (temp1 == temp2)
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are reference equal", temp1, temp2);
else
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are NOT reference equal", temp1, temp2);

// Notice they are structrually equal
UriTemplateEquivalenceComparer comparer = new UriTemplateEquivalenceComparer();
bool result = comparer.Equals(temp1, temp2);

if (result)
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are structurally equal", temp1, temp2);
else
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are NOT structurally equal", temp1, temp2);
