CompareTo

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

Declaration

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

Parameters

Return Value

The method returns a number:

Less than zero: if the current OracleIntervalYM represents a shorter time interval than obj.

Zero: if the current OracleIntervalYM and obj represent the same time interval.

Greater than zero: if the current OracleIntervalYM represents a longer time interval than obj.

Implements

IComparable

Exceptions

ArgumentException - The obj parameter is not of type OracleIntervalYM.

Remarks

The following rules apply to the behavior of this method.

The comparison must be between OracleIntervalYMs. For example, comparing an OracleIntervalYM instance with an OracleBinary instance is not allowed. When an OracleIntervalYM is compared with a different type, an ArgumentException is thrown.
Any OracleIntervalYM that has a value compares greater than an OracleIntervalYM that has a null value.
Two OracleIntervalYMs that contain a null value are equal.
