EqualityComparer<T>.Default Property

Definition

Returns a default equality comparer for the type specified by the generic argument.

public:
 static property System::Collections::Generic::EqualityComparer<T> ^ Default { System::Collections::Generic::EqualityComparer<T> ^ get(); };
public static System.Collections.Generic.EqualityComparer<T> Default { get; }
static member Default : System.Collections.Generic.EqualityComparer<'T>
Public Shared ReadOnly Property Default As EqualityComparer(Of T)

Property Value

The default instance of the EqualityComparer<T> class for type T.

Examples

The following example creates a collection that contains elements of the Box type and then searches it for a box matching another box by calling the FindFirst method, twice.

The first search does not specify any equality comparer, which means FindFirst uses EqualityComparer<T>.Default to determine equality of boxes. That in turn uses the implementation of the IEquatable<T>.Equals method in the Box class. Two boxes are considered equal if their dimensions are the same.

The second search specifies an equality comparer (BoxEqVolume) that defines equality by volume. Two boxes are considered equal if their volumes are the same.

Remarks

The Default property checks whether type T implements the System.IEquatable<T> interface and, if so, returns an EqualityComparer<T> that uses that implementation. Otherwise, it returns an EqualityComparer<T> that uses the overrides of Object.Equals and Object.GetHashCode provided by T.
