Implements

IEqualityComparer<T>::Equals(T, T)

This method is not normally called directly. It is called by another class that is comparing two UriTemplate instances.

The following code shows how to call the Equals method.


UriTemplate temp1 = new UriTemplate("weather/{state}/{city}");
UriTemplate temp2 = new UriTemplate("weather/{country}/{village}");

// Notice they are not reference equal, in other words
// they are do not refer to the same object
if (temp1 == temp2)
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are reference equal", temp1, temp2);
else
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are NOT reference equal", temp1, temp2);

// Notice they are structrually equal
UriTemplateEquivalenceComparer comparer = new UriTemplateEquivalenceComparer();
bool result = comparer.Equals(temp1, temp2);

if (result)
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are structurally equal", temp1, temp2);
else
    Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1} are NOT structurally equal", temp1, temp2);
