OBJECT 中的equals和deepequals

先看源码：

需要注意报名是util下面的并非java.lang下面的

package java.util;
/**
     * Returns {@code true} if the arguments are equal to each other
     * and {@code false} otherwise.
     * Consequently, if both arguments are {@code null}, {@code true}
     * is returned and if exactly one argument is {@code null}, {@code
     * false} is returned.  Otherwise, equality is determined by using
     * the {@link Object#equals equals} method of the first
     * argument.
     *
     * @param a an object
     * @param b an object to be compared with {@code a} for equality
     * @return {@code true} if the arguments are equal to each other
     * and {@code false} otherwise
     * @see Object#equals(Object)
     */
    public static boolean equals(Object a, Object b) {
        return (a == b) || (a != null && a.equals(b));
    }

可以看出 equals中的比较的内容

比较的是地址的内容， String a = "hello";String b = "hello";则反会的是true，

对象之间的比较返回的是false

deepEquals:

源码如下：

总结，比较的是集合中的每个字段的值，当数组中存在空的元素时直接返回的是false

当数组中的元素与比较的数组进行比较的时候，完全相同则为相同，反之 则为不相同。

具体的比较形式请看下面的源码。

/**
    * Returns {@code true} if the arguments are deeply equal to each other
    * and {@code false} otherwise.
    *
    * Two {@code null} values are deeply equal.  If both arguments are
    * arrays, the algorithm in {@link Arrays#deepEquals(Object[],
    * Object[]) Arrays.deepEquals} is used to determine equality.

    * Object#equals equals} method of the first argument.
    *
