DefaultInteractionEvidenceComparator (PSI :: JAMI - Java framework for molecular interactions 3.3.0 API)

- psidev.psi.mi.jami.utils.comparator.interaction.DefaultInteractionEvidenceComparator

```
public class DefaultInteractionEvidenceComparator
extends Object
```
Default InteractionEvidenceComparator. It will first compare the basic interaction properties using DefaultInteractionBaseComparator. It will then compares the IMEx identifiers if both IMEx ids are set. If at least one IMEx id is not set, it will compare the negative properties. A negative interaction will come after a positive interaction. it will compare the experiment using DefaultExperimentComparator. If the experiments are the same, it will compare the participants using DefaultParticipantEvidenceComparator. Then, it will compare the parameters using DefaultParameterComparator. If the parameters are the same, it will first compare the experimental variableParameters using VariableParameterValueSetComparator and then it will compare the inferred boolean value (Inferred interactions will always come after).

    Use DefaultInteractionEvidenceComparator to know if two experimental interactions are equals.
    
    Parameters:
    
    experimentalInteraction1 - a InteractionEvidence object.
    
    experimentalInteraction2 - a InteractionEvidence object.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the two experimental interactions are equal
