The interface corresponds to the --add-reads command line option for the JVM. It is used by the Java
compiler task, but can also be used for other JVM related use-cases.
Clients shouldn't implement this interface.
Use create to create a new instance.
| public static JavaAddReads | create( Creates a new instance that requires the specified modules by the given module. |
| public boolean | Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. |
| public String | Gets the module that requires the associated modules. |
| public Set< | Gets the names of the required modules. |
| public int | hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object. |
null.
The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:
- It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value
x,x.equals(x)should returntrue. - It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values
xandy,x.equals(y)should returntrueif and only ify.equals(x)returnstrue. - It is transitive: for any non-null reference values
x,y, andz, ifx.equals(y)returnstrueandy.equals(z)returnstrue, thenx.equals(z)should returntrue. - It is consistent: for any non-null reference values
xandy, multiple invocations ofx.equals(y)consistently returntrueor consistently returnfalse, provided no information used inequalscomparisons on the objects is modified. - For any non-null reference value
x,x.equals(null)should returnfalse.
The equals method for class Object implements the most discriminating possible equivalence
relation on objects; that is, for any non-null reference values x and y, this method returns
true if and only if x and y refer to the same object (x == y has the value
true).
Note that it is generally necessary to override the hashCode method whenever this method is overridden,
so as to maintain the general contract for the hashCode method, which states that equal objects must have
equal hash codes.
true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.Always contains at least 1 element.
The general contract of hashCode is:
- Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the
hashCodemethod must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used inequalscomparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application. - If two objects are equal according to the
equals(Object)method, then calling thehashCodemethod on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result. - It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the
Object.equals(
Object) method, then calling thehashCodemethod on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.
As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct
integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object
into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the Java™ programming language.)
