equalsObj method

bool equalsObj(Object o)

Tests whether this geometry is structurally and numerically equal to a given Object. If the argument Object is not a Geometry, the result is false. Otherwise, the result is computed using {@link #equalsExact(Geometry)}.

This method is provided to fulfill the Java contract for value-based object equality. In conjunction with {@link #hashCode()} it provides semantics which are most useful for using Geometrys as keys and values in Java collections.

Note that to produce the expected result the input geometries should be in normal form. It is the caller's responsibility to perform this where required (using {@link Geometry#norm()} or {@link #normalize()} as appropriate).

@param o the Object to compare @return true if this geometry is exactly equal to the argument

Implementation

bool equalsObj(Object o) {
  if (!(o is Geometry)) return false;
  Geometry g = o as Geometry;
  return equalsExactGeom(g);
}
