Determines if the prepared symbol matches any alias in this item. A prepared symbol must be in LowerInvariant case and be wrapped in leading and trailing pipes. This method is provided for efficiency when attempting to match multiple periods. If determining a match for a single period use Match(String) which does not require preparation.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Returns a String that represents the current Object.

Determines if the object value is equal to another object. If the two objects are null, then this returns true. There is special handling for guid comparisons (since a guid could be a string formatted in up to 3 different ways). If the special guid handling is not performed, then the object.Equals method is used.
