Method:

public boolean isEqual(OffsetDateTime other)

Checks if the instant of this OffsetDateTime is equal to that of the specified one.

This is equivalent to using dateTime1.toInstant().equals(dateTime2.toInstant()).



Examples


package com.logicbig.example.offsetdatetime;

import java.time.*;

public class IsEqualExample {

    public static void main (String... args) {
        OffsetDateTime d = OffsetDateTime.of(LocalDateTime.of(2010, 10, 3,
                                                              12, 0),
                                             ZoneOffset.ofHours(-6));

        OffsetDateTime d2 = OffsetDateTime.of(LocalDate.of(2010, 10, 3),
                                              LocalTime.NOON,
                                              ZoneOffset.ofHours(-5));
        boolean b = d.isEqual(d2);
        System.out.println(b);
    }
}

Output

false
