    • isEqual

      public static <T> boolean isEqual​(T object1, T object2)
      Determine if two objects of the same type are equal or not.
      Type Parameters:
      T - The type of object being compared.
      Parameters:
      object1 - Left hand side object.
      object2 - Right hand side object.
      Returns:
      True if the objects are equal, false otherwise.

    • addNoDuplicates

      public static <T> boolean addNoDuplicates​(java.util.List<T> list, T candidate)
      Add an item to a list, checking for duplicates. If the item is duplicated, it is not added and false is returned. This allows you to use a List container like a Set. There are situations where the List interface is more useful than the Set interface, but you cannot allow duplicates.
      Type Parameters:
      T - The type of object contained by list.
      Parameters:
      list - The list to add the item to.
      candidate - The candidate item.
      Returns:
      True if the item was added, false if it already exists so it was not added again.

    • isZero

      public static boolean isZero​(long[] values, int columnCount)
      Determine if all the values in an array are zero or not. Please note that this is only available since Moneydance build 754
      Parameters:
      values - The array to check.
      columnCount - Number of array values to check
      Returns:
      True if all values are zero, false if one or more values is non-zero.
      Since:
