> You would lose backwards compatibility with 1.3 and 1.4. Sure, at least at compile time (I'm sure about runtime, as I said I'm not a generics expert). The 'generic' version(s) could be in another package or class clearly marked as that. For example
org.apache.commons.dbutils.generic.BasicRowProcessor or org.apache.commons.dbutils.GenericBasicRowProcessor It looks a little verbose, and maybe somebody finds a better solution. But at some point you have to make the switch to JDK 1.5. This here may not be the most important case, but you have to start somewhere. Otherwise, people will use another library (= not use the commons libraries) for JDK 1.5. Thomas -- Echte DSL-Flatrate dauerhaft für 0,- Euro*!
