Claim.Equals(Object) Method

Definition

Determines whether the specified object represents the same claim as the current Claim object.

public:
 override bool Equals(System::Object ^ obj);
public override bool Equals (object obj);
override this.Equals : obj -> bool
Public Overrides Function Equals (obj As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

obj
Object

The object to compare with the current Claim.

Returns

true if obj represents the same claim as the current Claim; otherwise false.

Remarks

This method overrides the Equals method to provide equality comparisons for Claim objects. The comparison consists of three comparisons on the values of the Right, ClaimType, and Resource properties. The comparison algorithm that is used on the Resource property depends upon the value of the ClaimType property. The following table details the comparison algorithm that is used for the specified claim type.

Claim type Comparison
Dns Case insensitive string comparison on the resource.
Hash Byte-by-byte comparison.
Rsa Byte-by-byte comparison on the Modulus and Exponent parts of the algorithm.
Thumbprint Byte-by-byte comparison.
Upn SID comparison.
