Namespace:

System.Security.Policy

Assembly:

System.Security.Permissions.dll

Determines whether two code groups are equivalent.

Equals(CodeGroup, Boolean)	Determines whether the specified code group is equivalent to the current code group, checking the child code groups as well, if specified.

Equals(Object)

Source:

CodeGroup.cs

Determines whether the specified code group is equivalent to the current code group.

C#

public override bool Equals(object o);

Parameters

o

Object

The code group to compare with the current code group.

Returns

Boolean

true if the specified code group is equivalent to the current code group; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Two code groups are equivalent if they have the same Name, Description, and MembershipCondition.

This method tests the top-level code group only, not its child code groups.

Equals(CodeGroup, Boolean)

Source:

CodeGroup.cs

Determines whether the specified code group is equivalent to the current code group, checking the child code groups as well, if specified.

C#

public bool Equals(System.Security.Policy.CodeGroup cg, bool compareChildren);

Parameters

cg

CodeGroup

The code group to compare with the current code group.

compareChildren

Boolean

true to compare child code groups, as well; otherwise, false.

Returns

Boolean

true if the specified code group is equivalent to the current code group; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Two code groups are equivalent if they have the same Name, Description, and MembershipCondition.

If the compareChildren parameter is true, this method will only return true if the current code group and all its child code groups are equivalent to the specified code group and all its child code groups.
