CaseInsensitiveHashCodeProvider.GetHashCode(Object) Method

Definition

Returns a hash code for the given object, using a hashing algorithm that ignores the case of strings.

public:
 virtual int GetHashCode(System::Object ^ obj);
public int GetHashCode (object obj);
override this.GetHashCode : obj -> int
Public Function GetHashCode (obj As Object) As Integer

Parameters

obj
Object

The Object for which a hash code is to be returned.

Returns

A hash code for the given object, using a hashing algorithm that ignores the case of strings.

Implements

Exceptions

obj is null.

Remarks

The return value from this method must not be persisted for two reasons. First, the hash function of a class might be altered to generate a better distribution, thereby rendering any values from the old hash function useless. Second, the default implementation of this class does not guarantee that the same value will be returned by different instances.
