GetHashCode Method (EventMetricSample)

In This Topic

Serves as the default hash function. Provides a representative hash code for objects of this type to spread out distribution in hash tables.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overrides Function GetHashCode() As Integer

public override int GetHashCode()

Return Value

A hash code for the current object. An int representing the hash code calculated for the contents of this object.

Remarks

Objects which consider themselves to be Equal (a.Equals(b) returns true) are expected to have the same hash code. Objects which are not Equal may have the same hash code, but minimizing such overlaps helps with efficient operation of hash tables.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
