Jeremy Gray commented on IBATISNET-118:
---------------------------------------

Gilles: Having reviewed the CacheKey code _again_ this fall (after first 
looking at it back in the spring) I can tell you that it does not do what you 
describe. Types that need to be treated as special cases (e.g. Hashtable) given 
the needs of the application are currently using only hashcode and perhaps 
Equals comparisons. Other types are treated as a special case (walking their 
properties) when the .NET equality semantics demand that they strictly be 
compared based on GetHashCode and Equals. Even given the current logic, 
GetHashCode and Equals are not internally consistent - one of them applies 
different special cases than the other.

Clinton: Our company would love it to be fixed for us :), but will be happy to 
implement the fix at the point in our schedule where it becomes critical. That 
said, at the time we can implement it I doubt we'll be able to verify against 
the full set of ibatis.net test cases, so we might need a hand in verification 
from someone who is already set up to do so.
