> The utils_stringHash function is generating the same id for a set of different strings.
> The following code can be used (the DJB2 Hash algorithm):
> --------------------------------------------
> unsigned int hc = 5381;
> char ch;
> while((ch = *string++) != '\0') {
>         hc = (hc << 5) + hc + ch;
> }
> return hc;
> ---------------------------------------------
