DateTimeOffset::Equals Method (Object)
Determines whether a DateTimeOffset object represents the same point in time as a specified object.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- obj
- Type: System::Object
The object to compare to the current DateTimeOffset object.
Return Value
Type: System::Booleantrue if the obj parameter is a DateTimeOffset object and represents the same point in time as the current DateTimeOffset object; otherwise, false.
Before it performs the comparison, this method converts the values of both the current DateTimeOffset object and the obj parameter to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The method is equivalent to the following:
In other words, the DateTimeOffset::Equals(Object) method determines whether the current DateTimeOffset object and a specified object represent a single point in time. It directly compares neither dates and times nor offsets. To determine whether two DateTimeOffset objects represent the same time and have the same offset value, use the EqualsExact method.
If obj is nullptr, or if the run-time type of obj is not DateTimeOffset, the method returns false.
The following example indicates whether the current DateTimeOffset object is equal to several other DateTimeOffset objects, as well as to a null reference and a DateTime object.
