IEqualsImplementation (ph-commons 11.1.0 API)

Type Parameters:

T - Type of objects to compare

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface IEqualsImplementation<T>
```

- Method Detail
  - areEqual
```
boolean areEqual(@Nonnull
                 T aObj1,
                 @Nonnull
                 T aObj2)
```
    Check if the passed two objects are identical or not.
    
    Parameters:
    
    aObj1 - First object. May not be null.
    
    aObj2 - Second object. May not be null.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the passed objects are equals according to the specification of Object.class.
  - implementationEqualsOverridesInterface
```
default boolean implementationEqualsOverridesInterface()
```
    Returns:
    
    true if this implementation is designed to work on an interface, but equals is called for an implementation of that interface and provides its own equal method.
