Point taken. I should have said, "Which simply behaves indistinguishably from the 'Object#hashCode()' method for its argument." It being a literal wrapper is not important, only that it produces the same result as 'Object#hashCode()' per its documentation. Which latter in its Javadocs tells us that it's "typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer". All of which supports markspace's notion that the hash code is intended as a sort-of address for programming purposes. N.b., the promise of 'hashCode()' explicitly disallows using the result of 'System.identityHashCode()' as a guaranteed-unique object identifier. -- Lew
