## Class HashCode

- java.lang.Object
- - org.modeshape.common.util.HashCode

-     @Immutable
      public class HashCode
      extends Object

  Utilities for easily computing hash codes. The algorithm should generally produce good distributions for use in hash-based containers or collections, but as expected does always result in repeatable hash codes given the inputs.

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected static int` | `_compute(int seed, Object... objects)` Compute a combined hash code from the supplied objects using the supplied seed.
    `static int` | `compute(Object... objects)` Compute a combined hash code from the supplied objects.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### compute

          public static int compute(Object... objects)

      Compute a combined hash code from the supplied objects. This method always returns 0 if no objects are supplied.
      Parameters:
        `objects` - the objects that should be used to compute the hash code
      Returns:
        the hash code

    - #### _compute

          protected static int _compute(int seed,
                     Object... objects)

      Compute a combined hash code from the supplied objects using the supplied seed.
      Parameters:
        `seed` - a value upon which the hash code will be based; may be 0
        `objects` - the objects that should be used to compute the hash code
      Returns:
        the hash code
