compareclosures

Compares two closures while following hook aliases.

Syntax

compareclosures(a: any, b: any) -> boolean

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`a`	`any`	The a value used by the call.
`b`	`any`	The b value used by the call.

Returns

Type	Description
`boolean`	The boolean result of the check.

Description

compareclosures is part of the Closures library. Closure helpers operate on live Luau function objects. Hooks redirect future calls through the replacement closure and return the previous implementation.

The call is read-only: it resolves the current value when invoked and does not change the underlying state.

The aliases comparefunctions(a, b), comparefunction(a, b) resolve to the same implementation.

Example

local fn = function() end
local copy = clonefunction(fn)
print(compareclosures(fn, copy), comparefunctions(fn, fn))

Notes

Aliases: comparefunctions(a, b), comparefunction(a, b).
Closure operations act on live Luau function objects; installed hooks remain active until restored.
