## Member Function Documentation

### EventContextRef EventContext::operator= (EventContextCref) throw ( corelinux::Assertion )

Assignment operator changes the context. **Parameters:**

*EventContext* reference to existing context

**Returns:**

EventContext reference

**Exceptions:**

*ThreadNotWaitingException* if the Event context is not in a THREAD\_WAITING\_TO\_START state.

### bool EventContext::operator== (EventContextCref) const

Equality operator compares contexts. **Parameters:**

*EventContext* reference to existing context

**Returns:**

bool true if same
