Returns a value indicating whether this instance is equal to a specified object.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overrides Function Equals ( _
    obj As Object _
) As Boolean

public override bool Equals(
    Object obj
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if obj is an instance of UInt64 and equals the value of this instance; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the Equals method.

Dim myVariable1 As UInt64 = UInt64.Parse(50)
Dim myVariable2 As UInt64 = UInt64.Parse(50)

'Display the declaring type.
outputBlock.Text += String.Format(ControlChars.NewLine + "Type of 'myVariable1' is '{0}' and" + _
            " value is :{1}", myVariable1.GetType().ToString(), myVariable1.ToString()) + vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Type of 'myVariable2' is '{0}' and" + _
      " value is :{1}", myVariable2.GetType().ToString(), myVariable2.ToString()) + vbCrLf
' Compare 'myVariable1' instance with 'myVariable2' Object.
If myVariable1.Equals(myVariable2) Then
   outputBlock.Text += String.Format(ControlChars.NewLine + "Structures 'myVariable1' and" + _
               "'myVariable2' are equal") + vbCrLf
Else
   outputBlock.Text += String.Format(ControlChars.NewLine + "Structures 'myVariable1' and" + _
         "'myVariable2' are not equal") + vbCrLf
End If

UInt64 myVariable1 = 50;
UInt64 myVariable2 = 50;

// Display the declaring type.
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("\nType of 'myVariable1' is '{0}' and" +
     " value is :{1}", myVariable1.GetType(), myVariable1) + "\n";
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Type of 'myVariable2' is '{0}' and" +
     " value is :{1}", myVariable2.GetType(), myVariable2) + "\n";
// Compare 'myVariable1' instance with 'myVariable2' Object.
if (myVariable1.Equals(myVariable2))
   outputBlock.Text += String.Format("\nStructures 'myVariable1' and " +
         "'myVariable2' are equal") + "\n";
else
   outputBlock.Text += String.Format("\nStructures 'myVariable1' and " +
         "'myVariable2' are not equal") + "\n";
