Yep. As in: return o != null ? o.getClass().getName() +'@' mailto:+%27@%27+ Integer.toHexString(System.identityHashCode(o)) : "null"; I suppose the name should be identityToString to match System.identityHashCode??? Jason
I think a better name would be "defaultToString" since it is the default toString from Object. However, I haven't ever heard anyone else request easier access to the default toString before so I'm not convinced this should go into Objects.
