CompareTo(TableObject)

Compares the current TableObject with another TableObject of the same type.

Declaration

public int CompareTo(TableObject other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TableObject	other	A TableObject to compare with this TableObject.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	An integer that indicates the relative order of the table objects being compared. The return value has the following meanings: Value Meaning Less than zero This object is less than the other parameter. Zero This object is equal to other. Greater than zero This object is greater than other.

Remarks

If both table objects are not of the same type it will return zero. The comparison is made by their names.

CompareTo(Object)

Compares the current TableObject with another TableObject of the same type.

Declaration

public int CompareTo(object other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Object	other	A TableObject to compare with this TableObject.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	An integer that indicates the relative order of the table objects being compared. The return value has the following meanings: Value Meaning Less than zero This object is less than the other parameter. Zero This object is equal to other. Greater than zero This object is greater than other.

Remarks

If both table objects are no of the same type it will return zero. The comparison is made by their names.

Equals(TableObject)

Check if two TableObject are equal.

Declaration

public bool Equals(TableObject other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TableObject	other	Another TableObject to compare to.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	True if two TableObject are equal or false in any other case.

Remarks

Two TableObjects are considered equals if their names are the same, regardless of their internal values. This is done this way because in a dxf two TableObjects cannot have the same name.

Equals(Object)

Check if two TableObject are equal.

Declaration

public override bool Equals(object other)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Object	other	Another TableObject to compare to.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	True if two TableObject are equal or false in any other case.

Overrides

System.Object.Equals(System.Object)

Remarks

Two TableObjects are considered equals if their names are the same, regardless of their internal values. This is done this way because in a dxf two TableObjects cannot have the same name.

Returns the hash code for this instance.

Declaration

public override int GetHashCode()

Returns

Type	Description
System.Int32	A 32-bit signed integer that is the hash code for this instance.

Overrides

System.Object.GetHashCode()
