equals

I want to merge cells in columns, if there is the same value in whole row. Eg. If A1:G1 range is the same as A2:G2 I want to merge A1:A2 cells, B1:B2 to G1:G2. With my code below I get run time error 13: type mismatch. I'm assuming, that problem is with checking equality of two ranges. Dim i As Long, j As Long, row as Long row = Cells(Rows.Count, 6).End(xlUp).row For i = row To 7 Step -1 If Range(Cells(i, 7), Cells(i, 24)).Value = Range(Cells(i - 1, 7), Cells(i - 1, 24)).Value Then For j = 7 To 24 Step 1 Range(Cells(i, j), Cells(i - 1, j)).Merge Next j End If Next i The question is, how to

I have classes like below class A { @Override public boolean equals(Object other) { return true } } Class B extends A { } Class C extends A { @Override public boolean equals(Object other) { if ((other != null) || (other instanceOf B)) return false; } } In my main() I have this following code Set<A> mySet = new CopyOnWriteArraySet<A>(); mySet.add(C); I want mySet to contain C at this point mySet.add(B); // #1 I want mySet to contain C & B at this point mySet.remove(B); // #2 I want mySet to contain C at this point I want to create a global queue where if object C exists in the queue B should be

I am using Entity Framework in my application. I implemented with the partial class of an entity the IEquatable<T> interface: Partial Class Address : Implements IEquatable(Of Address) 'Other part generated Public Overloads Function Equals(ByVal other As Address) As Boolean _ Implements System.IEquatable(Of Address).Equals If ReferenceEquals(Me, other) Then Return True Return AddressId = other.AddressId End Function Public Overrides Function Equals(ByVal obj As Object) As Boolean If obj Is Nothing Then Return MyBase.Equals(obj) If TypeOf obj Is Address Then Return Equals(DirectCast(obj, Address

I have been trying to understand how some of API methods work below is a snippet of equals method of java.lang.String class Can someone out there tell me how actually the code is comparing two strings. I get the significance of count, but what does offset signify. how are these variables getting values ? Like when i create a String. how are these initialized. a detailed line by line description and also how and when the instance variables, value, count, offset etc are initialized ?? public boolean equals(Object anObject) { 1014 if (this == anObject) { 1015 return true; 1016 } 1017 if (anObject

Are there any utils in java which allow to check objects equality without equals overriding? For some reasons I don't want to provide my class with equals method. I need something like SomeUtils.equals(a,b) in my unit test which compares all object fields (via reflection I guess). You could use EqualsBuilder.reflectionEquals(this, obj); in Apache Commons EqualsBuilder 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30195291/check-objects-equality-without-equals-overriding-in-java

I have been reading about how best to override the equals method when dealing with subclasses and here I have found quite a few posts. They recommend different ways of implementing a solution using instanceof or getClass() to compare objects of different sub classes. However with reference to Effective Java, my understanding is (and I am new to this so I may well be wrong!) Bloch argues that in the end both can be problematic, “There is no way to extend an instantiable class and add a value component while preserving the equals contract, unless you are willing to forgo the benefits of object
