Member Function Documentation

unsigned long ACE_Hashable::hash void   )  const [virtual]
 

Computes and returns hash value. This "caches" the hash value to improve performance.

Definition at line 22 of file Hashable.cpp.

References hash_i(), and hash_value_.

00023 {
00024   // In doing the check below, we take chance of paying a performance
00025   // price when the hash value is zero.  But, that will (hopefully)
00026   // happen far less often than a non-zero value, so this caching
00027   // strategy should pay off, esp. if hash computation is expensive
00028   // relative to the simple comparison.
00029 
00030   if (this->hash_value_ == 0)
00031     this->hash_value_ = this->hash_i ();
00032 
00033   return this->hash_value_;
00034 }

virtual unsigned long ACE_Hashable::hash_i void   )  const [protected, pure virtual]
 

This is the method that actually performs the non-cached hash computation.

Implemented in ACE_Refcounted_Hash_Recyclable< T >.
