/**
 * <p>
 * Assists in implementing {@link Object#hashCode()} methods.
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <p>
 * This class enables a good <code>hashCode</code> method to be built for any class. It follows the rules laid out in
 * the book <a href="http://java.sun.com/docs/books/effective/index.html">Effective Java</a> by Joshua Bloch. Writing a
 * good <code>hashCode</code> method is actually quite difficult. This class aims to simplify the process.
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <p>
 * All relevant fields from the object should be included in the <code>hashCode</code> method. Derived fields may be
 * excluded. In general, any field used in the <code>equals</code> method must be used in the <code>hashCode</code>
 * method.
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <p>
 * To use this class write code as follows:
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <pre>
 * public class Person {
 *   String name;
 *   int age;
 *   boolean smoker;
 *   ...
 *
 *   public int hashCode() {
 *     // you pick a hard-coded, randomly chosen, non-zero, odd number
 *     // ideally different for each class
 *     return new HashCodeBuilder(17, 37).
 *       append(name).
 *       append(age).
 *       append(smoker).
 *       toHashCode();
 *   }
 * }
 * </pre>
 * <p/>
 * <p>
 * If required, the superclass <code>hashCode()</code> can be added using {@link #appendSuper}.
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <p>
 * Alternatively, there is a method that uses reflection to determine the fields to test. Because these fields are
 * usually private, the method, <code>reflectionHashCode</code>, uses <code>AccessibleObject.setAccessible</code>
 * to change the visibility of the fields. This will fail under a security manager, unless the appropriate permissions
 * are set up correctly. It is also slower than testing explicitly.
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <p>
 * A typical invocation for this method would look like:
 * </p>
 * <p/>
 * <pre>
 * public int hashCode() {
 *   return HashCodeBuilder.reflectionHashCode(this);
 * }
 * </pre>
