Examples
The following example demonstrates how to use the Equals method. To run this example, paste it into a Windows Form. Handle the form's Paint event and call the CharacterRangeEquality2
method from the Paint event-handling method, passing e
as PaintEventArgs.
private void CharacterRangeEquality2()
{
// Declare the string to draw.
string message = "Strings or strings; that is the question.";
// Compare the ranges for equality. The should not be equal.
CharacterRange range1 =
new CharacterRange(message.IndexOf("Strings"), "Strings".Length);
CharacterRange range2 =
new CharacterRange(message.IndexOf("strings"), "strings".Length);
if (range1.Equals(range2))
MessageBox.Show("The ranges are equal.");
else
MessageBox.Show("The ranges are not equal.");
}
Private Sub CharacterRangeEquality2()
' Declare the string to draw.
Dim message As String = "Strings or strings; that is the question."
' Compare the ranges for equality. The should not be equal.
Dim range1 As New CharacterRange(message.IndexOf("Strings"), _
"Strings".Length)
Dim range2 As New CharacterRange(message.IndexOf("strings"), _
"strings".Length)
If range1.Equals(range2) Then
MessageBox.Show("The ranges are equal.")
Else
MessageBox.Show("The ranges are not equal.")
End If
End Sub
Remarks
You can also use Equality to test for equality.
