Interface TLongHashingStrategy

All Superinterfaces:

java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

TLongHash

public interface TLongHashingStrategy

extends java.io.Serializable

Method Summary

int	computeHashCode(long val) Computes a hash code for the specified long.

Method Detail

computeHashCode

public int computeHashCode(long val)

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

Returns:

the hashCode
