Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
Public Overrides Function Equals ( _
obj As Object _
) As Boolean
public override bool Equals(
Object obj
)
Parameters
- obj
Type: System..::.Object

Examples
The following code example determines whether the first Byte value is equal to the second Byte value, and whether the first Byte value is equal to the boxed version of the second Byte value.
' This code example demonstrates the System.Byte.Equals(Object) and
' System.Byte.Equals(Byte) methods.
Class Example
Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
Dim byteVal1 As Byte = &H7F
Dim byteVal2 As Byte = 127
Dim objectVal3 As Object = byteVal2
'
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("byteVal1 = {0}, byteVal2 = {1}, objectVal3 = {2}" & vbCrLf, _
byteVal1, byteVal2, objectVal3) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("byteVal1 equals byteVal2?: {0}", byteVal1.Equals(byteVal2)) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("byteVal1 equals objectVal3?: {0}", byteVal1.Equals(objectVal3)) & vbCrLf
End Sub 'Main
End Class 'Sample
'
'This code example produces the following results:
'
'byteVal1 = 127, byteVal2 = 127, objectVal3 = 127
'
'byteVal1 equals byteVal2?: True
'byteVal1 equals objectVal3?: True
