> A follow-up of sorts to JDK-8257086, this change aims to improve the > discussion of the relationship between Object.equals and compareTo and > compare methods. The not-consistent-with-equals natural ordering of > BigDecimal get more explication too. While updating Object, I added some uses > of apiNote and implSpec, as appropriate. While a signum method did not exist > when Comparable was added, it has existed for many years so I removed > obsolete text that defined a "sgn" function to compute signum. > > Once the changes are agreed to, I'll reflow paragraphs and update the > copyright years.
