/**
 * 

* Assists in implementing {@link Object#hashCode()} methods. *

*

*

* This class enables a good hashCode method to be built for any class. It follows the rules laid out in * the book Effective Java by Joshua Bloch. Writing a * good hashCode method is actually quite difficult. This class aims to simplify the process. *

*

*

* All relevant fields from the object should be included in the hashCode method. Derived fields may be * excluded. In general, any field used in the equals method must be used in the hashCode * method. *

*

*

* To use this class write code as follows: *

*

*

 * public class Person {
 *   String name;
 *   int age;
 *   boolean smoker;
 *   ...
 *
 *   public int hashCode() {
 *     // you pick a hard-coded, randomly chosen, non-zero, odd number
 *     // ideally different for each class
 *     return new HashCodeBuilder(17, 37).
 *       append(name).
 *       append(age).
 *       append(smoker).
 *       toHashCode();
 *   }
 * }
 * 
*

*

* If required, the superclass hashCode() can be added using {@link #appendSuper}. *

*

*

* Alternatively, there is a method that uses reflection to determine the fields to test. Because these fields are * usually private, the method, reflectionHashCode, uses AccessibleObject.setAccessible * to change the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security manager, unless the appropriate permissions * are set up correctly. It is also slower than testing explicitly. *

*

*

* A typical invocation for this method would look like: *

*

*

 * public int hashCode() {
 *   return HashCodeBuilder.reflectionHashCode(this);
 * }
