GacMembershipCondition.Equals(Object) Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security.Policy

Assembly:

System.Security.Permissions.dll

Indicates whether the current object is equivalent to the specified object.

public:
 override bool Equals(System::Object ^ o);

public override bool Equals (object o);

override this.Equals : obj -> bool

Public Overrides Function Equals (o As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

o

Object

The object to compare with the current object.

Returns

Boolean

true if o is a GacMembershipCondition; otherwise, false.

Implements

Equals(Object)

Examples

The following code example shows the use of the Equals method. This example is part of a larger example provided for the GacMembershipCondition class.

GacMembershipCondition ^ Gac1 = gcnew GacMembershipCondition;
GacMembershipCondition ^ Gac2 = gcnew GacMembershipCondition;

// Roundtrip a GacMembershipCondition to and from an XML encoding.
Gac2->FromXml(Gac1->ToXml());
bool result = Gac2->Equals(Gac1);
if (result)
{
    Console::WriteLine("Result of ToXml() = {0}", Gac2->ToXml());
    Console::WriteLine(
        "Result of ToFromXml roundtrip = {0}", Gac2);
}
else
{
    Console::WriteLine(Gac2->ToString());
    Console::WriteLine(Gac1->ToString());
    return false;
}

GacMembershipCondition Gac1 = new GacMembershipCondition();
GacMembershipCondition Gac2 = new GacMembershipCondition();

// Roundtrip a GacMembershipCondition to and from an XML encoding.
Gac2.FromXml(Gac1.ToXml());
bool result = Gac2.Equals(Gac1);
if (result)
{
    Console.WriteLine(
        "Result of ToXml() = " + Gac2.ToXml().ToString());
    Console.WriteLine(
        "Result of ToFromXml roundtrip = " + Gac2.ToString());
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine(Gac2.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine(Gac1.ToString());
    return false;
}

Dim Gac1 As New GacMembershipCondition
Dim Gac2 As New GacMembershipCondition

' Roundtrip a GacMembershipCondition to and from an XML encoding.
Gac2.FromXml(Gac1.ToXml())
Dim result As Boolean = Gac2.Equals(Gac1)
If result Then
    Console.WriteLine(("Result of ToXml() = " & _ 
        Gac2.ToXml().ToString()))
    Console.WriteLine(("Result of ToFromXml roundtrip = " & _ 
        Gac2.ToString()))
Else
    Console.WriteLine(Gac2.ToString())
    Console.WriteLine(Gac1.ToString())
    Return False
End If

Remarks

There are no degrees of global assembly cache membership. An assembly is either in the cache or it is not. If the object identified by o is a GacMembershipCondition, then the objects being compared are equal. This method returns false only if o is null or if o is not a GacMembershipCondition.
