System.ServiceModel.Primitives.dll

Package:

System.ServiceModel.Primitives v8.0.0

Source:

Claim.cs

Determines whether the specified object represents the same claim as the current Claim object.

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

public override bool Equals (object obj);

override this.Equals : obj -> bool

Public Overrides Function Equals (obj As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

obj

Object

The object to compare with the current Claim.

Returns

Boolean

true if obj represents the same claim as the current Claim; otherwise false.

Remarks

This method overrides the Equals method to provide equality comparisons for Claim objects. The comparison consists of three comparisons on the values of the Right, ClaimType, and Resource properties. The comparison algorithm that is used on the Resource property depends upon the value of the ClaimType property. The following table details the comparison algorithm that is used for the specified claim type.

Claim type	Comparison
Dns	Case insensitive string comparison on the resource.
Hash	Byte-by-byte comparison.
Rsa	Byte-by-byte comparison on the Modulus and Exponent parts of the algorithm.
Thumbprint	Byte-by-byte comparison.
Upn	SID comparison.
X500DistinguishedName	Normalized X.500 raw data comparison.
