Used zjrJS Version:

Stable Minified version 20141202t2322 of zjrJS.


 

Declaration
zjrJS.Doc.hashCode(String anyString);

Goal
To quickly convert any string into a hash. Based on Java's String.hashCode() via the work found here: http://werxltd.com/wp/2010/05/13/javascript-implementation-of-javas-string-hashcode-method/

Typical usage
Create a small identificating checksum for any string, no matter how long. The resulting hash is an integer number, save for storing in memory and databases. Not to be used for encryption. The algorithm creates a one-way hash, meaning its result cannot be converted back into its input.

newStoreValue = 'technology=javascript;
zjrJS.Doc.Store.set(storeKey, newStoreValue);
