[flexcoders] How can I compare two XMLs by reference and not by value ?

2007-11-20 Thread helihobby 
Hello All,

I have the following code:

public function timelineDurationOfAction(itemInTree:Object):int
{

for each ( var xmlValue:XML in _actionProviderTree) 
{
   if ( xmlValue == itemInTree) trace(Found);
}

}

and I need to be able to compare the xmlValue and itemInTree.

However, I need to compare it by refrenece ( i.e.: memory address ) 
and not by content as I have many XML's which repeat in value and 
look the same but are not by actual memory address ...

I need to trace the Found only when the two XML objects are the 
same by memory location.

Is it possible ?

Thank you for all the help,

Try using === instead of ==.
