DateTimeOffset.EqualsExact() Method in C#

The DateTimeOffset.EqualsExact() method in C# is used to determine whether the current DateTimeOffset object represents the same time and has the same offset as a specified DateTimeOffset object.

Syntax

Following is the syntax −

public bool EqualsExact (DateTimeOffset val);

Above, Val is the object to compare.

Example

Let us now see an example to implement the DateTimeOffset.EqualsExact() method −

using System;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      DateTimeOffset dateTimeOffset1 = new DateTimeOffset(2019, 11, 09, 5, 30, 10, new TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0));
      DateTimeOffset dateTimeOffset2 = new DateTimeOffset(2019, 11,09, 5, 30, 10, new TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0));
      Console.WriteLine("DateTimeOffset1 = {0}", dateTimeOffset1);
      Console.WriteLine("DateTimeOffset2 = {0}", dateTimeOffset2);
      bool res = dateTimeOffset1.EqualsExact(dateTimeOffset2);
      if (res){
         Console.Write("DateTimeOffset1 = DateTimeOffset2 ");
      } else {
         Console.Write("DateTimeOffset1 and DateTimeOffset2 are different");
      }
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

DateTimeOffset1 = 11/9/2019 5:30:10 AM -05:00
DateTimeOffset2 = 11/9/2019 5:30:10 AM -05:00
DateTimeOffset1 = DateTimeOffset1

Example

Let us now see another example to implement the DateTimeOffset.EqualsExact() method −

using System;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      DateTimeOffset dateTimeOffset1 = new DateTimeOffset(2019, 09, 09, 5, 30, 10, new TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0));
      DateTimeOffset dateTimeOffset2 = new DateTimeOffset(2019, 11, 09, 9, 20, 20, new TimeSpan(-5, 0, 0));
      Console.WriteLine("DateTimeOffset1 = {0}", dateTimeOffset1);
      Console.WriteLine("DateTimeOffset2 = {0}", dateTimeOffset2);
      bool res = dateTimeOffset1.EqualsExact(dateTimeOffset2);
      if (res) {
         Console.Write("DateTimeOffset1 = DateTimeOffset2 ");
      } else {
         Console.Write("DateTimeOffset1 and DateTimeOffset2 are different");
      }
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

DateTimeOffset1 = 9/9/2019 5:30:10 AM -05:00
DateTimeOffset2 = 11/9/2019 9:20:20 AM -05:00
DateTimeOffset1 and DateTimeOffset2 are different
