Interface TShortHashingStrategy

All Superinterfaces:
java.io.Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
TShortHash

public interface TShortHashingStrategy
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
 int computeHashCode(short val)
          Computes a hash code for the specified short.
 

Method Detail

computeHashCode

public int computeHashCode(short val)
Computes a hash code for the specified short. Implementors can use the short's own value or a custom scheme designed to minimize collisions for a known set of input.

Returns:
the hashCode
