Comparing 2 colors

Hi,

When I compare 2 colors like c1 == c2, it returns true, but when I do the same in a ShouldSerializePropertyName method, it doesn't work, which means it's not true then?

When I compare the components separately in the a ShouldSerializePropertyName method, it works. So any insights on the c1 == c2 issue?

Thanks,
Aw

Hi,

Couldyou postsome code of your comparing logic? In my side, I just test with thefollowing code, and it works.

Code Snippet

TestControl : Control {

private string test;

public string Test

{

get { return test; }

set { test = value; }

}

private bool ShouldSerializeTest()

{

Color c1 = Color.Red;

Color c2 = Color.Red;

bool result = c1 == c2;

MessageBox.Show(result.ToString()); //shows "true"

return result;

}

Hi,

I tried using:

Color c1 = Color.FromArgb(5,5,5)
Color c2 = Color.FromArgb(5,5,5)

And I remember it returned false. It could be my error, because I tried it very quickly.

Thanks,
Aw
