Description:
This method compares this object to the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is an Short object that contains the same short value as this object.
Example
Short eqA = new Short("10");
Short eqB = new Short("10");
if (eqA.equals(eqB))
Logger.log("correct: A eq B");
The comparison between eqA and eqB delivers a true result.
