[FIXED] How to send class equals implementation to client using a WCF Web Server

Issue

I'm developing an aplication in java (JSF) which communicates whith an WCF web server. I developed the webserver using c#, and I'm havin trouble to send the equals implementation of an complex object to the java client. For example, consider this c# class:

[DataContract(Namespace = "http://mywebservice.com/Entidades")]
    public class Record{private Int64 id;
    [DataMember]
    public Int64 Id
    {
        get { return id; }
        set { id = value; }
    }

    public override bool Equals(Object obj)
    {
          if(obj is Record){
               Record rec = obj as Record;
               return rec.Id == this.Id;
         }
         return false;
    }

}

First tryed to put the [DataMember] in the equals, but I discovered that I can't do that. How is the right way to send this implementation of the "equals" of this complex type to the java client?

Thanks in advance

Solution

That doesn't make sense.
Web services transfer data, not code.

You need to implement equals() in you Java objects in source.
