equals函數在基類object中已經定義,源碼如下
代碼如下:
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
return (this == obj);
}
從源碼中可以看出默認的equals()方法與“==”是一致的,都是比較的對象的引用,而非對象值(這裡與我們常識中equals()用於對象的比較是相饽的,原因是java中的大多數類都重寫了equals()方法,下面已String類舉例,String類equals()方法源碼如下:)
[java]
代碼如下:
/** The value is used for character storage. */
private final char value[];
/** The offset is the first index of the storage that is used. */
private final int offset;
/** The count is the number of characters in the String. */
private final int count;
[java] view plaincopyprint?
public boolean equals(Object anObject) {
if (this == anObject) {
return true;
}
if (anObject instanceof String) {
String anotherString = (String)anObject;
int n = count;
if (n == anotherString.count) {
char v1[] = value;
char v2[] = anotherString.value;
int i = offset;
int j = anotherString.offset;
while (n-- != 0) {
if (v1[i++] != v2[j++])
return false;
}
return true;
}
} //www.software8.co
return false;
}
String類的equals()非常簡單,只是將String類轉換為字符數組,逐位比較。
綜上,使用equals()方法我們應當注意:
1. 如何equals()應用的是自定義對象,你一定要在自定義類中重寫系統的equals()方法。
2. 小知識,大麻煩。
