  The following methods of the class javax.xml.datatype.Duration

public int hashCode()

returns different values for some equal durations.

Javadoc of the method reads:

"Returns a hash code consistent with the definition of the equals method."

So, the method is expected to return the same values for equal durations.
For example, one day ("P1D") is equal to 24 hours ("PT24H"). Hash codes
of the durations must be equal.

This bug affects new tests in JCK 1.5 (not integrated yet)
    api/javax_xml/datatype/Duration/index.html#Duration[HashCode001]

The bug is found in jdk1.5.0/beta/b32.

To reproduce the bug compile and run the following code as shown
in the log below:
------------------------------------------ test.java
import javax.xml.datatype.Duration;

public class test {
    public static void main(String [] args) {
        int hc1 = new Duration("P1D").hashCode();
        int hc2 = new Duration("PT24H").hashCode();
        if (hc1 != hc2) {
            System.out.println("Failed: 'P1D'.hashCode() = " + hc1
             + " differs from 'PT24H'.hashCode() = " + hc2);
        } else {
            System.out.println("OK");
        }
    }
}
