Java Utils - Objects.deepEquals() Examples

[Last Updated: Nov 8, 2025]

Class:

java.util.Objects

Method:

public static boolean deepEquals(Object a,
                                 Object b)

Returns true if the arguments are deeply equal to each other and false otherwise. Here 'deeply' used in the sense that if a or b are arrays then they are recursively reached for deciding the equality.

Examples

package com.logicbig.example.objects;

import java.util.Objects;

public class DeepEqualsExample {

    public static void main(String... args) {
        String s1 = "testStr";
        String s2 = "testStr";
        boolean b = equals(s1, s2);
        System.out.println(b);

        int[] arr1 = {3, 5, 7};
        int[] arr2 = {3, 5, 7};
        b = equals(arr1, arr2);
        System.out.println(b);


        b = equals(null, null);
        System.out.println(b);

        b = equals(null, arr1);
        System.out.println(b);
    }

    public static boolean equals(Object o1, Object o2) {
        return Objects.deepEquals(o1, o2);
    }
}

Output

true
true
true
false
