  Specification for the method MidiDevice.Info.equals() from the package
javax.sound.midi reads:
"Reports whether two objects are equal. Returns true if the objects
are identical.
  Overrides: equals in class Object."
  
  But reference implementation does not override Object.equals() method
and fails for identical instances. The same is true for hashCode()
method.

This bug causes failure of new JCK test:
  api/javax_sound/midi/MidiDevice/index.html#TypeCtor
  
To reproduce the bug run the following test with JDK build 1.4.1-beta-b07:
------------------------------- test.java --------------------------------
import javax.sound.midi.*;
import java.io.*;


public class test {

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        boolean failed = false;
        String name = "name";
        String vendor = "vendor";
        String descr = "description";
        String ver = "version";
        String sameName = "name";
        MidiDevice.Info dInfo1 = new DevInfo(name, vendor, descr, ver);
        MidiDevice.Info dInfo2 = new DevInfo(name, vendor, descr, ver);

        if (!dInfo1.equals(dInfo2)) {
            System.out.println("These devices must be equal!");
            System.out.println("Device:" + dInfo1);
            System.out.println("Device:" + dInfo2);
            failed = true;
        }
        dInfo2 = new DevInfo(sameName, vendor, descr, ver);
        if (!dInfo1.equals(dInfo2)) {
            System.out.println("These devices must be equal too!");
            System.out.println("Device:" + dInfo1);
            System.out.println("Device:" + dInfo2);
            failed = true;
        }
    
        if( failed == true ) {
            System.out.println("Test failed!");
        } else {
            System.out.println("OK.");
        }
        System.exit(0);
    }
}

class DevInfo extends MidiDevice.Info {
    DevInfo(String n,String v1,String d,String v2) {
    super(n,v1,d,v2);
    }
}
