I saw that java can’t handle unsigned long…
If yes, can any one post the code? Thanks.

Are you going to be interoperating with languages featuring unsigned types? If not you can probably just use the standard java long without a problem. It will probably overflow anyways (as per the discussion here djb2 Hash Function) but that’s not a problem.
Here’s a PermissionSet class in the wild using this implementation. Don’t forget that a hashCode in Java needs to return an integer anyways, so the lack of an unsigned long should not make a difference – there will just be fewer possible values that the function takes on.
