------------------------------------

             Summary: Redo hashCode() and equals() methods in 
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.net.ssl classes.
                 Key: LOG4J2-1603
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1603
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.6.2
            Reporter: Gary Gregory
            Assignee: Gary Gregory
             Fix For: 2.7


We have a few FindBugs warnings about {{hashCode()}} and {{equals(Object)}} 
methods in the package {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.net.ssl}} classes.

The first problem is that not all classes implement these method where some of 
the code expects it to like an {{equals()}} method calling another {{equals()}} 
method but there is not one and the behavior of {{Object.equals()}} kicks in.

This change make it obvious where there are still issues: the behavior 
described above will only happen when the code path ends up in a JRE class 
which itself depends on {{Object.equals()}}, so you still get a FindBugs 
warning about that but it is no longer a warning about a class in our code. We 
can revisit how to best implement {{equals()}} for those classes later.

It is possible that the warning is a false positive since the JRE could be 
using a subclass of the class FindBugs complains about.
