DefinitionalObject Methods |
The DefinitionalObject type exposes the following members.
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
  | AreSameDefinition(Boolean, Boolean) |
Determines if two booleans have the same definition. This overload simply checks equality and is provided for convenience.
|
| AreSameDefinition(Double, Double) |
Determines if two doubles have the same definition. This overload simply checks equality and is provided for convenience.
|
| AreSameDefinition(IEquatableDefinition, Object) |
Determines if two objects have the same definition or are both .
|
| AreSameDefinition(Int32, Int32) |
Determines if two integers have the same definition. This overload simply checks equality and is provided for convenience.
|
| AreSameDefinition(Object, Object) |
Determines if two objects have the same definition or are both .
|
 | CheckForSameDefinition |
Checks to determine if another instance has the same definition as this instance and
returns if it does. Derived classes MUST override this method and check
all new fields introduced by the derived class for definitional equivalence. It is NOT necessary
to check base class fields because the base class will already have done that. When overriding this method,
you should NOT call the base implementation because it will return for all derived-class instances.
Derived classes should check the type of other to preserve the symmetric nature of IsSameDefinition(Object).
|
| Clone |
Clones this object using the specified context.
|
| CollectionItemsAreSameDefinitionT(T, T) |
Determines if two collections contain items with the same definition and in the same order,
or are both .
|
| CollectionItemsAreSameDefinitionT(IEnumerableT, IEnumerableT) |
Determines if two collections contain items with the same definition and in the same order,
or are both .
|
| CollectionItemsAreSameDefinitionT(TimeIntervalCollectionT, TimeIntervalCollectionT) |
Determines if two interval collections contain items with the same definition and in the same order,
or are both .
|
| ComputeCurrentDefinitionHashCode |
Computes a hash code based on the current properties of this object. Derived classes MUST override this
method and compute a hash code that combines: a unique hash code seed, the base implementation result, and
the hash codes of all new fields introduced by the derived class which are used in the
CheckForSameDefinition(DefinitionalObject) method.
|
| DictionaryItemsAreSameDefinitionTKey, TValue |
Determines if two dictionaries contain items with the same definition, or are both .
|
| EnumerateDependencies |
Enumerates the dependencies of this object by calling
EnumerateT(T) for each object that this object directly depends upon.
Derived classes which contain additional dependencies MUST override this method, call the base
implementation, and enumerate dependencies introduced by the derived class.
|
| Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Freeze |
Freezes this object. Further attempts to modify it will result
in an ObjectFrozenException.
|
| FreezeAggregatedObjects |
Called by Freeze to also freeze any objects that are considered to be a part of this object.
Derived classes which contain additional aggregated objects MUST override this method, call the base
implementation, and freeze aggregated objects introduced by the derived class. The objects that need to be
frozen in this method are frequently created in this object's constructor and are not settable via
properties.
|
| GetCollectionHashCode(Double) |
Computes a hash code from the items in an array.
The hash code computed is order dependent, that is, another array
with the same items in a different order will have a different hash code.
|
| GetCollectionHashCodeT(T) |
Computes a hash code from the items in an array.
The hash code computed is order dependent, that is, another array
with the same items in a different order will have a different hash code.
|
| GetCollectionHashCodeT(IEnumerableT) |
Computes a hash code from the items in an enumerable collection.
The hash code computed is order dependent, that is, another collection
with the same items in a different order will have a different hash code.
|
| GetDefinitionHashCode |
Gets a hash code representing the definition of this object.
|
| GetDefinitionHashCode(Boolean) |
Gets a hash code safely.
This overload simply calls GetHashCode and is provided for convenience.
|
| GetDefinitionHashCode(Double) |
Gets a hash code safely.
This overload simply calls GetHashCode and is provided for convenience.
|
| GetDefinitionHashCode(IEquatableDefinition) |
Gets a hash code safely.
If the specified object is , a valid hash code is still returned.
|
| GetDefinitionHashCode(Int32) |
Gets a hash code safely.
This overload simply calls GetHashCode and is provided for convenience.
|
| GetDefinitionHashCodeT(T) |
Gets a hash code safely.
If the specified object is , a valid hash code is still returned.
|
| GetDictionaryHashCodeTKey, TValue |
Computes a hash code from the items in a dictionary.
|
| GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| IsSameDefinition |
Determines if this object has the same definition as another object.
|
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ThrowIfFrozen |
Throws ObjectFrozenException if this object IsFrozen.
This method should be called from any method or property that modifies this object.
|
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
