http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29294 [lang][PATCH] lang.math.Fraction class deficiencies ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-07-06 16:57 ------- I should clarify my last comment: I put a decent amount of work into retrofitting my changes to Fraction to make them compatible with the old "broken" interfaces. I think that deprecating Fraction in commons-lang is a good idea, and it's good that a nice clean API will make it to commons-math (one hopes), but it's not entirely clear to me why my original patch couldn't be taken as is. I thought the whole point of having comprehensive test-suites was to allow large-ish source code changes while maintaining assurance that compatibility was preserved (which it was). I spent a lot of effort extending the test suite for Fraction to document this fact. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
