Explanation of Solution

Name of the method called to get an object’s hash code:

The “hashCode()” method is called to get an object’s hash code in the program.

  • The hash code is an integer value, which is a characteristic of an object.
  • The hashing algorithm is used to evaluate a hash code for an object.
  • Different objects in the code can contain the same data and a hashing algorithm should give the same hash code for those objects.

Example:

//store the string value into the variable

String str1 = new String ("Barney");

String str2...

Bean Scopes Suppose you are working on an application that involves encrypting passwords before storing them in the database. The encryption part is carried out by a PasswordEncryptor class. This class provides you with a method that takes a plaintext password and returns an encrypted one. You need to create a bean of this class. What should be the scope of this bean? Choose the correct option from those given below. (Hint: PasswordEncryptor only contains methods and no fields to maintain state. Hence, we need to create a stateless bean of PasswordEncryptor. Recall which bean scope is used for creating stateless beans.)   1) Prototype   2) Singleton   3) Request   4) SessionProvide right solution
