C# DateTimeOffset Equality

Description

DateTimeOffset Equality determines whether two specified DateTimeOffset objects represent the same point in time.

Syntax

DateTimeOffset.Equality has the following syntax.

public static bool operator ==(
  DateTimeOffset left,
  DateTimeOffset right
)

Parameters

DateTimeOffset.Equality has the following parameters.

• left - The first object to compare.
• right - The second object to compare.

Returns

DateTimeOffset.Equality method returns true if both DateTimeOffset objects have the same UtcDateTime value; otherwise, false.

Example

The Equality method defines the operation of the equality operator for DateTimeOffset objects. It enables code such as the following:

/*  w w  w.j  ava 2  s .co m*/
using System;
public class MainClass{
  public static void Main(String[] argv){  
    DateTimeOffset date1 = new DateTimeOffset(2014, 6, 3, 14, 45, 0, 
                 new TimeSpan(-7, 0, 0));
    DateTimeOffset date2 = new DateTimeOffset(2014, 6, 3, 15, 45, 0,
                 new TimeSpan(-6, 0, 0));
    DateTimeOffset date3 = new DateTimeOffset(date1.DateTime, 
                 new TimeSpan(-6, 0, 0));
    Console.WriteLine(date1 == date2);        
    Console.WriteLine(date1 == date3);       
    

  }
}
    

The code above generates the following result.
