Java class has default hashCode and equals method method implemented through super class. If u want to over ride them u can by following:
class MyOb {
private String name;
private Integer quality;
private final int MAXIMUM = 23;
@Override
public int hashCode() {
final int prime = 31;
int result = 1;
result = prime * result + ((name == null) ? 0 : name.hashCode());
result = prime * result + ((quality == null) ? 0 : quality.hashCode());
return result;
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
if (this == obj)
return true;
if (obj == null)
return false;
if (getClass() != obj.getClass())
return false;
MyOb other = (MyOb) obj;
if (name == null) {
if (other.name != null)
return false;
} else if (!name.equals(other.name))
return false;
if (quality == null) {
if (other.quality != null)
return false;
} else if (!quality.equals(other.quality))
return false;
return true;
}
}
Note: class cannot be private or static
