Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, TRest>::IStructuralEquatable::Equals Method

Returns a value that indicates whether the current Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, TRest> object is equal to a specified object based on a specified comparison method.

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

private:
virtual bool Equals(
	Object^ other, 
	IEqualityComparer^ comparer
) sealed = IStructuralEquatable::Equals

Parameters

other
Type: System::Object
The object to compare with this instance.
comparer
Type: System.Collections::IEqualityComparer
An object that defines the method to use to evaluate whether the two objects are equal.

Return Value

Type: System::Boolean
true if the current instance is equal to the specified object; otherwise, false.

Implements

IStructuralEquatable::Equals(Object, IEqualityComparer)

This member is an explicit interface member implementation. It can be used only when the Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, TRest> instance is cast to an IStructuralEquatable interface.

The IEqualityComparer::Equals implementation is called only if other is not nullptr, and if it can be successfully cast (in C#) or converted (in Visual Basic) to a Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, TRest> object that has the same total number of components (including those in nested Tuple objects) of the same types as the current instance. The IStructuralEquatable::Equals(Object, IEqualityComparer) method first passes the Item1 values of the Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, TRest> objects to be compared to the IEqualityComparer::Equals implementation. If this method call returns true, the method is called again and passed the Item2 values of the two Tuple<T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, TRest> objects. This continues until the method call returns false when it compares a specific pair of values, or the two Rest values are passed to the method.
