Enhancement: Override equals() and hashCode() #126

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Description of the new feature:
Need to be able to compare appointments.

Use Case:
Appointments are cloned when they are sent within an event. Need a way to find 
that particular appointment in a collection maintained in a HashMap elsewhere 
in my code. The cloned appointment is not equal to any appointments in the 
HashMap since it returns a different hashCode.

Patch is attached.

Thank you,

To me the Attendees, "Created By" and "All Day" values should be also part of 
both the HashCode and the equals methods.

Also, if you're using a HashMap to store your Appointments, you can use the ID 
as a unique identifier and help you to detect duplicates, can't you?

Looking forward for your comments
