             Summary: Revise javax.enterprise.util.AnnotationLiteral.cachedHashCode
                 Key: CDI-630
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-630
             Project: CDI Specification Issues
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Martin Kouba


Currently, {{AnnotationLiteral.hashCode()}} always returns {{0}} if there are no members (ignoring annotation type completely). Although it does not break {{Object.hashCode()}} contract, I believe we should either return a number based on the annotation type (to make the annotation literal instances more usable in hash tables) or simply return zero and don't cache the value at all.
