isIdentical
|
The isIdentical function compares the two arguments to see if they identical.
If the arguments are both native data objects, the immediate values are compared to see
if they are equal, in which case, the isIdentical function returns a Boolean value
of true otherwise it returns false. If the arguments are both heap data
objects, the object Ids are compared to see if they are equal, in which case, the
isIdentical function returns a Boolean value of true otherwise it returns false.
The == relational operator calls the isIdentical function to perform its comparison.
Usage Use the isIdentical function when you wish to compare two Objects to
determine if they are identical (they are one and the same).
(isIdentical obj1 obj2 ) For Native Data Types, returns true if the immediate values are identical and returns false if otherwise.
For
Heap Data Objects, returns true of the Object Ids are identical and returns false if otherwise.
(isIdentical arg1 arg2 ) This function returns the Boolean value true if the Repository Ids are equal; Returns
false if the Repository Ids are not equal.
