Returns an integer containing the hash code.

Description

By default, calling System::TObject::GetHashCode on an object, returns an integer representing the virtual address at which the object is stored.

Note: System::TObject::GetHashCode is supposed to be overridden in user derived classes, in order to provide consumer objects with an integer hash code representation.
