The hashCode() method of java.nio.ByteBuffer class is used to return the current hash code of this buffer. The hash code of a byte buffer depends only upon its remaining elements; that is, upon the elements from position() up to, and including, the element at limit() – 1. Because buffer hash codes are content-dependent, it is inadvisable to use buffers as keys in hash maps or similar data structures unless it is known that their contents will not change.
Syntax:
public int hashCode()
Return Value: This method returns the current hash code of this buffer. Below are the examples to illustrate the hashCode() method: Examples 1:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate // hashCode() method import java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // creating object of ByteBuffer // and allocating size capacity ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocate( 12 ); // putting the int value in the bytebuffer bb.asIntBuffer() .put( 10 ) .put( 20 ) .put( 30 ); // rewind the Bytebuffer bb.rewind(); // print the ByteBuffer System.out.println("Original ByteBuffer: "); for ( int i = 1 ; i <= 3 ; i++) System.out.print(bb.getInt() + " "); // rewind the Bytebuffer bb.rewind(); // Reads the Int at this buffer's current position // using hashCode() method int value = bb.hashCode(); // print the int value System.out.println("\n\nByte Value: " + value); } } |
Original ByteBuffer: 10 20 30 Byte Value: -219122491
Examples 2:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate // hashCode() method import java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // creating object of ByteBuffer // and allocating size capacity ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocate( 12 ); // Reads the Int at this buffer's current position // using hashCode() method int value = bb.hashCode(); // print the int value System.out.println("Byte Value: " + value); } } |
Byte Value: -293403007
