Re: transactions - equals and hashcode method

Hello all,

It looks the bug I was trying to find is because of the equals method.

I am using something like this..

class AImpl extends OzoneObject impelements A{
    String OID;  //

    public boolean equals(Object obj) {
         if (obj != null) {
         	if (OID.equals(((A)obj).getOID()) )
             	return true;
		}
         return false;
     }

     public int hashCode() {
		return OID.hashCode();
     }
}

Looks like this is giving me troubles and resulted in stack
overflow troubles later.

Is there some problem using the above approach for equals() and
hashcode() methods?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Sunil
