package edu.internet2.middleware.grouperClientExt.org.apache.commons.lang3.builder
Assists in creating consistent equals(Object)
, toString()
, hashCode()
, and compareTo(Object)
methods.
These classes are not thread-safe.
When you write a hashCode()
, do you check Bloch's Effective Java? No?
You just hack in a quick number?
Well HashCodeBuilder
will save your day.
It, and its buddies (EqualsBuilder
, CompareToBuilder
, ToStringBuilder
), take care of the nasty bits while you focus on the important bits, like which fields will go into making up the hashcode.
