Color.Equals Method

Definition

Tests whether two Color structures are identical.

Overloads

Equals(Object)

Tests whether the specified object is a Color structure and is equivalent to this color.

Equals(Color)

Tests whether the specified Color structure is identical to this color.

Equals(Color, Color)

Tests whether two Color structures are identical.

Equals(Object)

Tests whether the specified object is a Color structure and is equivalent to this color.

C#
public override bool Equals(object o);

Parameters

o
Object

The object to compare to this Color structure.

Returns

true if the specified object is a Color structure and is identical to the current Color structure; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Floating-point values can acquire a small degree of error when they are operated upon. The Equals method, the Equality operator, and the Inequality operator do not compensate for this and thus may not return the expected Boolean result.

The AreClose method uses a fuzzy equality algorithm that compensates for this floating-point arithmetic error by returning true for a comparison of two Color structures that are practically identical, but whose values may differ by a minuscule amount.

Equals(Color, Color)

Tests whether two Color structures are identical.

C#
public static bool Equals(System.Windows.Media.Color color1, System.Windows.Media.Color color2);

Parameters

color1
Color

The first Color structure to compare.

color2
Color

The second Color structure to compare.

Returns

true if color1 and color2 are exactly identical; otherwise, false.
