equals

open override fun equals(another: A_BasicObject): Boolean

Answer whether the receiver and the argument, both AvailObjects, are equal in value.

Note that the argument is of type A_BasicObject so that correctly typed uses (where the argument is statically known to be an AvailObject) proceed normally. Incorrectly typed uses (where the argument is an arbitrary Java Object should show up as calling a deprecated method, and should fail at runtime if the argument is not actually an AvailObject.

Return

true if the two objects are of equal value, false otherwise.

Parameters

another

The object to be compared to the receiver.
