Class IntegerHashComparator

java.lang.Object
  jdsl.core.ref.IntegerHashComparator

All Implemented Interfaces:

EqualityComparator, HashComparator

public class IntegerHashComparator

extends Object

implements HashComparator

An implementation of a HashComparator for java.lang.Integers

Version:

JDSL 2.1.1

Author:

Keith Schmidt (kas)

Constructor Summary

IntegerHashComparator()

Method Summary

int	hashValue(Object toHash) defines a mapping f: Integer -> \mathbb{Z} \cap [0, 2^{31} -1]
boolean	isComparable(Object toCompare) determines if the Comparator can use this Object
boolean	isEqualTo(Object first, Object second) tests equality on two Integers

IntegerHashComparator

public IntegerHashComparator()

Method Detail

isComparable

public boolean isComparable(Object toCompare)

determines if the Comparator can use this Object

Specified by:

isComparable in interface EqualityComparator

Parameters:

toCompare - Any java.lang.Object

Returns:

True if and only if this comparator may compare this object.

isEqualTo

public boolean isEqualTo(Object first,
                         Object second)
                  throws ClassCastException

tests equality on two Integers

Specified by:

isEqualTo in interface EqualityComparator

Parameters:

first - First Object to compare

second - Second Object to compare

Returns:

True if and only if a is equal to b

Throws:

ClassCastException

hashValue

public int hashValue(Object toHash)
              throws ClassCastException

defines a mapping f: Integer -> \mathbb{Z} \cap [0, 2^{31} -1]

Specified by:

hashValue in interface HashComparator

Parameters:

toHash - an object acting as a key in a hash table

Returns:

the hash code value of obj

Throws:

ClassCastException
