<p>I recently come across the issue where conforming to <code>Hashable</code> wasn’t enough to thecke if two instances of the same <em>generic</em> type were equal.</p>
<p>I had additionally provide myself the <code>!=</code> function.</p>
<pre><code class="swift">public func !=<T, U>(lhs: SomeTypeName<T>, rhs: SomeTypeName<U>) -> Bool {
return lhs.hashValue != rhs.hashValue
}
</code></pre>
<p>I wondered if Swift can ever get generic specialization like this:</p>
<pre><code class="swift">public func !=<T : Hashable, U, V>(lhs: T<U>, rhs: T<V>) -> Bool {
return !(lhs.hashValue == rhs.hashValue)
}
</code></pre>
