Tuple<T1, T2>.IStructuralEquatable.Equals Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns a value that indicates whether the current Tuple<T1, T2> object is equal to a specified object based on a specified comparison method.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Private Function Equals ( _
    other As Object, _
    comparer As IEqualityComparer _
) As Boolean Implements IStructuralEquatable.Equals
bool IStructuralEquatable.Equals(
    Object other,
    IEqualityComparer comparer
)

Parameters

  • other
    Type: System.Object
    The object to compare with this instance.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the current instance is equal to the specified object; otherwise, false.

Implements

IStructuralEquatable.Equals(Object, IEqualityComparer)

Remarks

This member is an explicit interface member implementation. It can be used only when the Tuple<T1, T2> instance is cast to an IStructuralEquatable interface.

The IStructuralEquatable.Equals implementation is called only if other is not nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), and if it can be successfully cast (in C#) or converted (in Visual Basic) to a Tuple<T1, T2> object whose components are of the same types as the current instance. The IStructuralEquatable.Equals method first passes the Item1 values of the Tuple<T1, T2> objects to be compared to the IEqualityComparer.Equals implementation. If this method call returns true, the method is called again and passed the Item2 values of the two Tuple<T1, T2> objects.

Examples

The following example defines an Item2Comparer class that implements the IEqualityComparer interface and changes the way in which Tuple<T1, T2> objects are evaluated for equality. The method always returns true when it is passed the Item1 property values of two Tuple<T1, T2> objects, and it calls the IStructuralEquatable.Equals method to evaluate their Item2 property values. As a result, the method tests for equality based only on the value of the Item2 property. The output illustrates the result for a data set of Tuple<T1, T2> objects that record the names of runners and the distances that they ran.
