Returns comparison results of two binary arrays.

Namespace: GSF
Assembly: GSF.Core (in GSF.Core.dll) Version: 2.4.207-beta+1781b796b2aa7a54013a031eb432fe4ccee31867
Syntax
public static int CompareTo<T>(
	this T[] source,
	int sourceOffset,
	T[] other,
	int otherOffset,
	int count
)
where T : Object, IComparable<T>
View Source

Parameters

source  T
Source array.
sourceOffset  Int32
Offset into source array to begin compare.
other  T
Other array to compare to source array.
otherOffset  Int32
Offset into other array to begin compare.
count  Int32
Number of bytes to compare in both arrays.

Type Parameters

T

Return Value

Int32

A signed integer that indicates the relative comparison of source array and other array.

Return ValueDescription
Less than zeroSource array is less than other array.
ZeroSource array is equal to other array.
Greater than zeroSource array is greater than other array.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type T. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentOutOfRangeExceptionsourceOffset or otherOffset is outside the range of valid indexes for the associated array -or- count is less than 0 -or- sourceOffset or otherOffset and count do not specify a valid section in the associated array.
Remarks
Note that if both arrays are null the arrays will be considered equal. If one array is null and the other array is not null, the non-null array will be considered larger.
