Hi, We can follow the same approach of what we did in ColorModel.equals() for JDK-7107905.
We can use getClass() check in ComponentSampleModel.equals() to differentiate between BandedSampleModel and PixelInterleavedSampleModel in rare cases where they can have same values and remove the need for equals() & hashCode() methods in these subclasses. We can update the specification of ComponentSampleModel.equals() to mention what properties we are checking and what its subclasses to follow as we did in ColorModel. Please find webrev for the above changes: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jdv/8153943/webrev.04/ Thanks, Jay -----Original Message----- From: Jim Graham Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2016 4:22 AM To: Phil Race Cc: Jayathirth D V; 2d-dev@openjdk.java.net Subject: Re: [OpenJDK 2D-Dev] Review Request for JDK-8153943 : In PixelInterLeavedSampleModel and BandedSampleModel we dont need hashCode() method Hi Phil, The following 2 statements are factually correct ignoring what we plan to do about these classes: - If they don't override equals() then they shouldn't override hash - Their raw casts were wrong (and the fact that nobody ever noticed that is a good indication that these methods have probably not been used in the wild). What I'm waffling on is that while the equals() methods appeared functionally useless, in practice they can either block or allow disparate class objects from being equal to each other and I'm thinking that one could argue that it makes strategic sense to enforce the correct class type (using instanceof) to match the behavioral expectations of a developer. Since I sent that out I also checked a similar case in the Number subclasses and an Integer and a Long will not evaluate to equals even if they hold the same cardinal value. Arguably that's even a stronger case of when 2 disparate objects might want to be seen as equals(), but we don't allow it there. Arguably, the override of hash is still unnecessary since it would be fine to allow disparate classes to have the same hash value from the super class - that doesn't violate any contracts. You can't allow it to inherit from Object.hashCode() since that hash value is very strict, but it would be OK to override the somewhat "property oriented" hash code from their immediate superclass. I would lean towards leaving it in if we decide to override equals() just to avoid the argument. Given the fact that these equals() methods have obviously not been used much, I don't have a strong opinion between "saving code by just not overriding them" and "making the different subclasses have unique identities by overriding and preventing them from being equal to each other". In the end, if we do fix the equals() for these classes, we should document why they are overriding equals() even if it appears to do not really value added testing compared to the super class... ...jim On 06/29/2016 02:29 PM, Phil Race wrote: > > To remind myself and others .. this review started out with changes to > the ColorModel classes mixed in. > Those were separated out making it easier to review just the > SampleModel hierachy here. > > Jim observed (see some way below for the context) :- > > > PixelInterleavedSampleModel and BandedSampleModel also have a > > meaningless override of super.equals/hashCode(). > > I think that comment is from when the webrev for those files looked > like this :- > > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jdv/8153943/webrev.02/src/java.desktop/sha > re/classes/java/awt/image/BandedSampleModel.java.sdiff.html > > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jdv/8153943/webrev.02/src/java.desktop/sha > re/classes/java/awt/image/PixelInterleavedSampleModel.java.sdiff.html > > > So Jim, are you suggesting a preferred option is to go back to that > proposal - at least for the equals methods ? > [Caveat : the proposed equals method there should test instanceof > before doing a cast but I actually don't know why it needs the cast > anyway] > > The hashCode() could be left alone in that case. > > But if the equals methods are not added as there, then I think we do > need to remove the > hashCode() since it could be different even if (albeit only in a > degenerate case), whilst instances (of the different classes) could > compare as equal. > > But in either case we need to look to the super-class which is lacking > any documentation of its own describing what makes two instances > equal. > We could try to explain there what might otherwise be surprising. > > -phil. > > > On 06/28/2016 01:40 PM, Jim Graham wrote: >> Still hoping to hear an opinion from Phil on this... >> >> The alternative is to add equals() overrides in the subclasses that >> just do "obj instanceof <myclass> && super.equals()" which would only >> matter in some specific somewhat degenerate cases. >> >> The intent would be that even though the layout and pixel fetching >> behavior for a specific configuration of PISM and BSM are identical, >> they are philosophically not the same and so should not evaluate as >> equals()... >> >> ...Or, should they? >> >> ...jim >> >> On 6/27/16 4:05 PM, Jim Graham wrote: >>> This is odd that two completely different classes have identical >>> "equals()" methods.
