equals method

bool equals(
  1. Object other
)
inherited

Checks whether the given object is logically equivalent to this annotation.

Logical equivalence means:

  • Same runtime _type (implements same annotation interface)
  • All fields/members of both annotations are equal

Value comparison rules:

  • Primitive types: compared via ==
  • double/float: compared via .equals, treating NaN == NaN, and 0.0 != -0.0
  • Strings, Classes, Enums, and other annotations: compared via .equals
  • Arrays: compared via deep equality (like ListEquality) for respective element types

Returns true if equivalent, false otherwise.

Implementation

bool equals(Object other) {
  return this == other;
}
