    • equals

      public final boolean equals(Object obj)

      equals in class Object
      Parameters:
      obj - Object the object to compare with this object.
      Returns:
      boolean true if the object is the same as this object false if it is different from this object.

    • hashCode

      public final int hashCode()

      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
      Returns:
      the receiver's hash.
