Hi Andrea: That approach works for me; however I am a bit worried that the check will be fragile.
Could the method be phrased as: FeatureTypes.equals( type1, type2, keys ) And only the user map keys mentioned would be involved in the comparison? This would allow you to exactly represent the check you want to perform.
