Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
int	computeHashCode(E object)	Computes the hashCode of the object as defined by the user.
boolean	equals(E object1, E object2)	Checks two objects for equality.

Method Detail

computeHashCode

int computeHashCode(E object)

Computes the hashCode of the object as defined by the user.

equals

boolean equals(E object1,
               E object2)

Checks two objects for equality. The equality check can use the objects own equals() method or a custom method defined by the user. It should be consistent with the computeHashCode() method.
