This artifact provides a single jar that contains all classes required to use remote EJB and JMS, including all dependencies. It is intended for use by those not using maven, maven users should just import the EJB and JMS BOM's instead (shaded JAR's cause lots of problems with maven, as it is very easy to inadvertently end up with different versions on classes on the class path).

The newest version!

  /**
   * Generates a hash code for multiple values. The hash code is generated by calling {@link

   * single Object array, do not get any special handling; their hash codes are based on identity
   * and not contents.
   *
   * 
This is useful for implementing {@link Object#hashCode()}. For example, in an object that
   * has three properties, {@code x}, {@code y}, and {@code z}, one could write:
   *
   * 
{@code
   * public int hashCode() {
   *   return Objects.hashCode(getX(), getY(), getZ());
   * }
   * }
   *
   * Warning: When a single object is supplied, the returned hash code does not equal the
   * hash code of that object.
   *
   * Note for Java 7 and later: This method should be treated as deprecated; use {@link
   * java.util.Objects#hash} instead.
