Parameters

buffer1

Type: SystemByte
The buffer containing the first object.

offset1

Type: SystemInt32
The offset into buffer1 where the first object starts.

count1

Type: SystemInt32
The number of bytes in buffer1 used by the first object.

buffer2

Type: SystemByte
The buffer containing the second object.

offset2

Type: SystemInt32
The offset into buffer2 where the second object starts.

count2

Type: SystemInt32
The number of bytes in buffer2 used by the second object.

Return Value

Implements

The values of count1 and count2 may be larger than the size of the record. The comparer should determine on its own the actual size of the record, in the same way the IWritable or ValueWriterT for that record does, and use that for the comparison. You should however never read more bytes from the buffer than the specified count.
