public interface TByteHashingStrategy
extends java.io.Serializable

Interface to support pluggable hashing strategies in maps and sets. Implementors can use this interface to make the trove hashing algorithms use an optimal strategy when computing hashcodes. Created: Sun Nov 4 08:56:06 2001

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
int	computeHashCode(byte val) Computes a hash code for the specified byte.

Method Detail

computeHashCode

int computeHashCode(byte val)

Computes a hash code for the specified byte. Implementors can use the byte's own value or a custom scheme designed to minimize collisions for a known set of input.

Parameters:

val - byte for which the hashcode is to be computed

Returns:

the hashCode
