XNodeEqualityComparer Class
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Compares nodes to determine whether they are equal. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System.Xml.Linq (in System.Xml.Linq.dll)
The XNodeEqualityComparer type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | XNodeEqualityComparer | Initializes a new instance of the XNodeEqualityComparer class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Equals(XNode, XNode) | Compares the values of two nodes. |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode(XNode) | Returns a hash code based on an XNode. |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | IEqualityComparer::Equals | Compares the values of two nodes. |
![]() ![]() | IEqualityComparer::GetHashCode | Returns a hash code based on the value of a node. |
The purpose of this class is to implement System.Collections::IEqualityComparer and System.Collections.Generic::IEqualityComparer<T>. Classes that require identity (such as Dictionary<TKey, TValue> ) require an instance of a class that implements one of these interfaces.
