Decimal.Equals Method (System) | Microsoft Learn

Source:: Decimal.cs

Source:: Decimal.cs

Source:: Decimal.cs

Source:: Decimal.cs

Returns a value indicating whether this instance and a specified Object represent the same type and value.

public:
 override bool Equals(System::Object ^ value);

public override bool Equals(object value);

public override bool Equals(object? value);

override this.Equals : obj -> bool

Public Overrides Function Equals (value As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

value: Object

The object to compare with this instance.

Returns

true if value is a Decimal and equal to this instance; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example compares several Decimal and other objects to a reference Decimal value using the Equals method.

Notes to Callers

Compiler overload resolution may account for an apparent difference in the behavior of the two Equals(Object) method overloads. If an implicit conversion between the value argument and a Decimal is defined and the argument is not typed as an Object, compilers may perform an implicit conversion and call the Equals(Decimal) method. Otherwise, they call the Equals(Object) method, which always returns false if its value argument is not a Decimal value. The following example illustrates the difference in behavior between the two method overloads. In the case of all primitive integral types, including both signed and unsigned types, the first comparison returns true because the compiler automatically performs a widening conversion and calls the Equals(Decimal) method, whereas the second comparison returns false because the compiler calls the Equals(Object) method.
