CompareTo

This method compares the current instance to the supplied object and returns an integer that represents their relative values.

Declaration

// C#
public int CompareTo(object obj);

Parameter

  • obj

    The supplied instance.

Return Value

The method returns a number:

  • Less than zero: if the value of the current instance is less than obj.

  • Zero: if the value of the current instance is equal to obj.

  • Greater than zero: if the value of the current instance is greater than obj.

Implements

IComparable

Exceptions

ArgumentException - The parameter is not of type OracleBoolean.

Remarks

The following rules apply to the behavior of this method.

  • The comparison must be between OracleBoolean. For example, comparing an OracleBoolean instance with an OracleBinary instance is not allowed. When an OracleBoolean is compared with a different type, an ArgumentException is thrown.

  • Any OracleBoolean that has a value compares greater than an OracleBoolean that has a null value.

  • Two OracleBoolean that contain a null value are equal.
