Hashing "object identities"

[Antoniotti Marco]

Hi

I am fooling around with a problem that eventually will have to use a hash table on “triples” of “integers” and “structures".  Triples I can portably pass to the EQUAL hash table.  I cannot use an EQUALP hash table, because I would end up wasting to much time.

Here is the rub:  my triples <N, O1, O2> need to use the “object identity” of O1 and O2 (two structs).  I could switch to an EQL hash table keyed on (HASH-TRIPLE-KEY N O1 O2).  How would you proceed (or write HASH-TRIPLE), while staying as much portable as possible?  As you well know SXHASH is practically useless.

Thanks
