javascript (compare 2 objects)
This sample helps you to compare 2 objects
JavaScript
/**
* Deep compare of two objects.
*
* Note that this does not detect cyclical objects as it should.
* Need to implement that when this is used in a more general case. It's currently only used
* in a place that guarantees no cyclical structures.
*
* @param {*} x
* @param {*} y
* @return {Boolean} Whether the two objects are equivalent, that is,
* every property in x is equal to every property in y recursively. Primitives
* must be strictly equal, that is "1" and 1, null an undefined and similar objects
* are considered different
