class NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneEqualityComparer
Assembly: NodaTime
Inheritance: object → ZoneEqualityComparer
Implemented Interfaces
Equality comparer for time zones, comparing specific aspects of the zone intervals within a time zone for a specific interval of the time line.
Remarks
The default behaviour of this comparator is to consider two time zones to be equal if they share the same wall
offsets at all points within a given time interval, regardless of other aspects of each
<see cref="T:NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneInterval" /> within the two time zones. This behaviour can be changed using the
<see cref="M:NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneEqualityComparer.WithOptions(NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneEqualityComparer.Options)" /> method.
Methods
public static
ZoneEqualityComparer
ForInterval(Interval interval)
Returns a <see cref="T:NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneEqualityComparer" /> for the given interval with the default options.
Returns A ZoneEqualityComparer for the given interval with the default options.
interval
The interval over which to compare time zones. This must have both a start and an end.
Remarks
The default behaviour of this comparator is to consider two time zones to be equal if they share the same wall
offsets at all points within a given interval.
To specify non-default options, call the <see cref="M:NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneEqualityComparer.WithOptions(NodaTime.TimeZones.ZoneEqualityComparer.Options)" /> method on the result
of this method.
public
bool
Equals(DateTimeZone x,
DateTimeZone y)
Compares two time zones for equality according to the options and interval provided to this comparer.
Returns <c>true</c> if the specified time zones are equal under the options and interval of this comparer; otherwise, <c>false</c> .
x
The first <see cref="T:NodaTime.DateTimeZone" /> to compare.
y
The second <see cref="T:NodaTime.DateTimeZone" /> to compare.
Returns A hash code for the specified object.
obj
The time zone to compute a hash code for.
Remarks
The hash code generated by any instance of <c>ZoneEqualityComparer</c> will be equal to the hash code
generated by any other instance constructed with the same options and interval, for the same time zone (or equal ones).
Two instances of <c>ZoneEqualityComparer</c> with different options or intervals may (but may not) produce
different hash codes for the same zone.
