```csharp
public bool Equals(ComponentType other)
```

### Parameters

**** (\[ComponentType]\(/engine/7000.0/script-reference/unity/entities/componenttype)): The other component type to compare to

### Returns

| Type                                                          | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| ------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [bool](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.boolean) | True if the [ComponentType.TypeIndex](/engine/7000.0/script-reference/unity/entities/componenttype/typeindex.md) and [ComponentType.AccessModeType](/engine/7000.0/script-reference/unity/entities/componenttype/accessmodetype.md)of both are equal |

## Equals(Object)

Checks to see if an object is equal to this component type.

```csharp
[ExcludeFromBurstCompatTesting("Takes managed object")]
public override bool Equals(object obj)
