Structure comparison

[Mistrel]

Now that we can assign structures in PureBasic 4.40 it would be nice to be able to perform comparison operations as well without the use of Compare Memory:

Code: Select all

If A.Point=B.Point
   Debug "True!"
EndIf

@Mistrel: The only comparison operators that would make sense are '=' and '<>' .

What would be the results of the others?

[Kaeru Gaman]

indeed, only equal or not equal

wich POINT is bigger?
ok, that could be a vector thingy..
but wich Dataset with Name, Adress and ZIP?
is Chicago bigger than Miami?

no, only "=" would make sense.
would be a special application of CompareMemory...

I only meant '=' and '<>'. The comparison would be bit-for-bit just like CompareMemory. It would just be easier to read using comparison operators instead of a function.
