C# in a Nutshell

Name

CaseInsensitiveHashCodeProvider

Synopsis

When this object is passed to a Hashtable constructor, it overrides the GetHashCode() method to allow string comparison without regard to case. If you pass an instance of this type into the Hashtable constructor, you should also pass in an instance of CaseInsensitiveComparer to ensure that any comparison operations (such as sorting) are also performed in a case-insensitive fashion.

   public method int GetHashCode(object obj);                   // implements IHashCodeProvider
