Implements

Equals(Type)

Examples

The following example uses Equals to compare two types.


using System;
using System.Reflection;

class Example
{
    public static void Main()
    {

        Type a = typeof(System.String);
        Type b = typeof(System.Int32);

        Console.WriteLine("{0} == {1}: {2}", a, b, a.Equals(b));

        // The Type objects in a and b are not equal,
        // because they represent different types.

        a = typeof(Example);
        b = new Example().GetType();

        Console.WriteLine("{0} is equal to {1}: {2}", a, b, a.Equals(b));

        // The Type objects in a and b are equal,
        // because they both represent type Example.

        b = typeof(Type);

        Console.WriteLine("typeof({0}).Equals(typeof({1})): {2}", a, b, a.Equals(b));

        // The Type objects in a and b are not equal,
        // because variable a represents type Example
        // and variable b represents type Type.

        //Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

//
/* This code example produces the following output:
    System.String == System.Int32: False
    Example is equal to Example: True
    typeof(Example).Equals(typeof(System.Type)): False
*/

open System

type Example() = class end

do
    let a = typeof<string>
    let b = typeof<int>

    printfn $"{a} == {b}: {a.Equals b}"

    // The Type objects in a and b are not equal,
    // because they represent different types.

    let a = typeof<Example>
    let b = Example().GetType()

    printfn $"{a} is equal to {b}: {a.Equals b}"

    // The Type objects in a and b are equal,
    // because they both represent type Example.

    let b = typeof<Type>

    printfn $"typeof({a}).Equals(typeof({b})): {a.Equals b}"

// The Type objects in a and b are not equal,
// because variable a represents type Example
// and variable b represents type Type.

(* This code example produces the following output:
    System.String == System.Int32: False
    Example is equal to Example: True

        ' The Type objects in a and b are not equal,

        a = GetType(Example)
        b = New Example().GetType()

Equals(Object)

Source:
Type.cs
Source:
Type.cs
Source:
Type.cs

Determines if the underlying system type of the current Type object is the same as the underlying system type of the specified Object.

public:
 override bool Equals(System::Object ^ o);
public override bool Equals (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 whose underlying system type is to be compared with the underlying system type of the current Type. For the comparison to succeed, o must be able to be cast or converted to an object of type Type.

Returns

Boolean

true if the underlying system type of o is the same as the underlying system type of the current Type; otherwise, false. This method also returns false if:

  • o is null.

  • o cannot be cast or converted to a Type object.

Implements

Equals(Object)

Examples

The following example uses Equals(Object) to compare various Type object instances with various Object instances.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Reflection;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Type t =typeof(int);

      IsEqualTo(t, obj1);

      Object obj2 = typeof(String);
      IsEqualTo(t, obj2);
      
      t = typeof(Object);
      Object obj3 = typeof(Object);
      IsEqualTo(t, obj3);
      
      t = typeof(List<>);
      Object obj4 = (new List<String>()).GetType();
      IsEqualTo(t, obj4);
      
      t = typeof(Type);
      Object obj5 = null;
      IsEqualTo(t, obj5);
   }
   
   private static void IsEqualTo(Type t, Object inst)
   {
      Type t2 = inst as Type;
      if (t2 != null)
         Console.WriteLine("{0} = {1}: {2}", t.Name, t2.Name,
                           t.Equals(t2));
      else
         Console.WriteLine("Cannot cast the argument to a type.");

      Console.WriteLine();                        
   }

' The example displays the following output:
'       Int32 = Int32: True
'       
'       Int32 = String: False
'       
'       Object = Object: True
'       
'       List`1 = List`1: False
'       
'       Cannot cast the argument to a type.

Two things are particularly worth noting about the example:

  • The comparison of a Type object that represents an integer with a TypeInfo object that represents an integer return true because TypeInfo is derived from Type.

  • The comparison of a Type object that represents a IList<T> object (an open generic type) with a List(Of String) object (a closed generic type) returns false.

Remarks

This method overrides Object.Equals. It casts o to an object of type Type and calls the Type.Equals(Type) method.
