CompareTo

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

Declaration

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

Parameters

  • obj

    The object being compared to the current OracleTimeStampLTZ instance.

Return Value

The method returns a number that is:

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

  • Zero: if the current OracleTimeStampLTZ instance and obj values are equal.

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

Implements

IComparable

Exceptions

ArgumentException - The obj parameter is not of type OracleTimeStampLTZ.

Remarks

The following rules apply to the behavior of this method.

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

  • Any OracleTimeStampLTZ that has a value is greater than an OracleTimeStampLTZ that has a null value.

  • Two OracleTimeStampLTZs that contain a null value are equal.
