The hashCode() method of Writer Class in Java is used to get the HashCode value of this Writer instance. This method does not accepts any parameter and returns the required int value.
Syntax:
Java
Java
public int hashCode()Parameters: This method accepts does not accepts any parameter. Return Value: This method returns a int value which is the HashCode value of the Writer instance. Below methods illustrates the working of hashCode() method: Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate
// Writer hashCode() method
import java.io.*;
class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try {
// Create a Writer instance
Writer writer
= new PrintWriter(System.out);
// Get the String
// to be written in the stream
String string = "GeeksForGeeks";
// Write the string
// to this writer using write() method
writer.write(string);
// Get the HashCode value using hashCode()
System.out.println("HashCode value: "
+ writer.hashCode());
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}
Output:
Program 2:
HashCode value: 589431969
// Java program to demonstrate
// Writer hashCode() method
import java.io.*;
class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try {
// Create a Writer instance
Writer writer
= new PrintWriter(System.out);
// Get the String
// to be written in the stream
String string = "GFG";
// Write the string
// to this writer using write() method
writer.write(string);
// Get the HashCode value using hashCode()
System.out.println("HashCode value: "
+ writer.hashCode());
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}
Output:
HashCode value: 589431969
