This instance method compares the LOB references.

Declaration

// C#
public bool IsEqual(OracleBFile obj);

Parameters

• obj

  The provided OracleBFile object.

Return Value

Returns true if the current OracleBFile and the provided OracleBFile object refer to the same external LOB. Returns false otherwise.

Exceptions

ObjectDisposedException - The object is already disposed.

InvalidOperationException - The OracleConnection is not open or has been closed during the lifetime of the object.

Remarks

Note that this method can return true even if the two OracleBFile objects return false for == or Equals() since two different OracleBFile instances can refer to the same external LOB.

The provided object and the current instance must be using the same connection; that is, the same OracleConnection object.
