# operator == method

bool operator == (Object other)
override

Test whether another object is equal to this function.

System-created function objects are only equal to other functions.

Two function objects are known to represent the same function if

- It is the same object. Static and top-level functions are compile time constants when used as values, so referring to the same function twice always give the same object,
- or if they refer to the same member method extracted from the same object. Extracting a member method as a function value twice gives equal, but not necessarily identical, function values.

Function expressions never give rise to equal function objects. Each time a function expression is evaluated, it creates a new closure value that is not known to be equal to other closures created by the same expression.

Classes implementing `Function` by having a `call` method should have their own `operator==` and `hashCode` depending on the object.

## Implementation

    bool operator ==(Object other);
