DateTimeEqualityExtensions

Equality APIs for nullable DateTimes that don't suck donkey ass.

Why

The equality semantics of nullable DateTimes in C# don't make the slightest sense. I genuinely have no idea of what they were thinking. The "right" way to deal with nullable DateTimes would be using Nullable.Compare instead of equality operators, but it feels quite inconvenient and unnatural.

This library provides some wrappers over Nullable.Compare that feel more natural and ergonomic.

DateTime? dt = DateTime.Now;
DateTime? dt2 = null;
bool isGreater = dt > dt2; //false
bool isGreater2 = dt.IsGreater(dt2); //true
