Comparing Class Types in Java

Question

I want to compare the class type in Java.

I thought I could do this:

class MyObject_1 {}
class MyObject_2 extends MyObject_1 {}

public boolean funct         


        

Answer 1

Hmmm... Keep in mind that Class may or may not implement equals() -- that is not required by the spec. For instance, HP Fortify will flag myClass.equals(myOtherClass).
