AssignmentBaseline.CompareTo

AssignmentBaseline.CompareTo method

IComparable interface implementation. Compares this instance to the specified Baseline object.

public int CompareTo(AssignmentBaseline other)
ParameterTypeDescription
otherAssignmentBaselinethe specified Baseline object to compare this instance to.

Return Value

returns -1 if this instance is less than the specified object, 1 if this instance is greater than the specified object; otherwise returns 0

Examples

Shows how to work with baselines of assignments.

var project = new Project(DataDir + "AssignmentBaseline2007.mpp");

// assignment baselines are set when one sets the baseline on whole project
project.SetBaseline(BaselineType.Baseline);

// read assignment baseline information
foreach (var assignment in project.ResourceAssignments)
{
    foreach (var baseline in assignment.Baselines)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Baseline Start: " + baseline.Start);
        Console.WriteLine("Baseline Finish: " + baseline.Finish);
        Console.WriteLine("Baseline Number: " + baseline.BaselineNumber);
        Console.WriteLine("Bcwp: " + baseline.Bcwp);
        Console.WriteLine("Bcws: " + baseline.Bcws);
        Console.WriteLine("Cost: " + baseline.Cost);
        Console.WriteLine("Work: " + baseline.Work);
        if (baseline.TimephasedData != null)
        {
            foreach (var td in baseline.TimephasedData)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("TD Start: " + td.Start);
                Console.WriteLine("TD Finish: " + td.Finish);
                Console.WriteLine("TD Timephased Data Type: " + td.TimephasedDataType);
                Console.WriteLine();
            }
        }

        Console.WriteLine();
    }

    Console.WriteLine();
}

// check baseline equality
var assn1 = project.ResourceAssignments.GetByUid(5);
var assn2 = project.ResourceAssignments.GetByUid(7);

var assignmentBaseline1 = assn1.Baselines.ToList()[0];
var assignmentBaseline2 = assn2.Baselines.ToList()[0];

// baselines can be compared by using 'Equals' method overloads
Console.WriteLine("Are baselines equal: " + assignmentBaseline1.Equals(assignmentBaseline2));

// or by using overloaded arithmetic operation
Console.WriteLine("Is baseline 1 less than baseline 2: " + (assignmentBaseline1 < assignmentBaseline2));

// the baseline hashcode is based on baseline number
Console.WriteLine("Assignment baseline 1 hashcode: " + assignmentBaseline1.GetHashCode());
Console.WriteLine("Assignment baseline 2 hashcode: " + assignmentBaseline2.GetHashCode());
