yathos UG updated LANG-1356:
Attachment: LANG-1356.patch
String compare with reflective EqualsBuilder will fail if hashCode() has been
called on one instance but not on the other yet. I assume it as
Bug in String class not to declare hash field with transient modifier, although
it is used as lazily set cache.
To overcome this issue I wrote patch [^LANG-1356.patch] which lets you define a
list of classes which should be excluded from reflectionAppend and compared by
its equals() method even.
This matches the further improvement the author of LANG-1034 had already
suggested.

> {quote}String are now compared with internal data (hash and char[]). But
> sometimes hash value is not initialized, this is probably a cache for the
> hashcode. So the comparison fails even if the char[] content is the same.
> You should add the bypass for basic JRE classes (String, Datetime types,
