String.GetHashCode Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns the hash code for this string.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute> _
Public Overrides Function GetHashCode As Integer

[SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute]
public override int GetHashCode()

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
A 32-bit signed integer hash code.

Remarks

The behavior of GetHashCode is dependent on its implementation, which might change from one version of the common language runtime to another. A reason why this might happen is to improve the performance of GetHashCode.

Note:
If two string objects are equal, the GetHashCode method returns identical values. However, there is not a unique hash code value for each unique string value. Different strings can return the same hash code.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the GetHashCode method using various input strings.

' Example for the String.GetHashCode( ) method.

Module Example

   Public Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      outputBlock.Text += _
          "This example of String.GetHashCode( ) " & _
          "generates the following output." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf

      DisplayHashCode(outputBlock, "")
      DisplayHashCode(outputBlock, "a")
      DisplayHashCode(outputBlock, "ab")
      DisplayHashCode(outputBlock, "abc")
      DisplayHashCode(outputBlock, "abd")

   Sub DisplayHashCode(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock, ByVal Operand As String)

      Dim HashCode As Integer = Operand.GetHashCode()

          "The hash code for ""{0}"" is: 0x{1:X8}, {1}", _
          Operand, HashCode) & vbCrLf
