Declaration Syntax| C# |
public struct Comparator : IMultiValue
Members| All Members | Constructors | Methods | Properties | Fields | |
| Icon | Member | Description |
|---|---|---|
 | Comparator(Int32) | Creates a new Comparator from an integer value. |
  | _undefined_ | This is the default Comparator value. |
| Between | This is the value for between. |
| Equal | This is the value for equal. |
| Equals(Object) | Performs an equality comparison with another object. (Overrides ValueType.Equals(Object).) |
 | ExplicitNarrowingExplicitExplicitExplicit(Comparator to String) | Explicit conversion from Comparator to string. |
 | Finalize()()()() |
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode()()()() | Creates a hash code for the Comparator. (Overrides ValueType.GetHashCode()()()().) |
| GetType()()()() |
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.) |
| GreaterOrEqual | This is the value for greater or equal. |
| GreaterThan | This is the value for greater than. |
| ImplicitWideningImplicitImplicitImplicit(Comparator to Int32) | Implicit conversion from Comparator to int. |
| ImplicitWideningImplicitImplicitImplicit(Int32 to Comparator) | Implicit conversion from int to Comparator. |
| ImplicitWideningImplicitImplicitImplicit(String to Comparator) | Implicit conversion from string to Comparator. |
| InSet | This is the value for in set. |
 | IsCombinable | Indicates whether Comparator values can be combined. |
| LessOrEqual | This is the value for less or equal. |
| LessThan | This is the value for less than. |
| Matches | This is the value for matches. |
| MemberwiseClone()()()() |
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.) |
| NotEqual | This is the value for not equal. |
| ordinal | Contains the value of the Comparator. |
| Ordinal | Gets the integer ordinal value of this Comparator. |
| Parse(String) | Parses a string containing a textual representation of an Comparator. |
| sourcePairs | This array contains one source pair for each Comparator value. |
| SourcePairs | Gets the array of ISourcePairs holding ordinal and text values. |
| TopValue | This is the value for the top value. |
| ToString()()()() | Creates a textual representation of the Comparator. (Overrides ValueType.ToString()()()().) |
RemarksA Comparator represents the comparison operator in a SimpleCondition within a ViewClass. The usual suspects are all there, the only
non obvious one being Matches, which represents a text matching operator
usually implemented by the LIKE operator in SQL.
