do you suggest me another safe method to compare structs ? A little code sample will be great !

struct foo
{
    short s;
    double d;

    bool equals( struct foo f )
    {
        // this is not the preferred method for comparing floating-point values (but that's not the point)
        return (this->s == f.s) && (this->d == f.d);
    }
};
