Baljit Singh updated LANG-1674:
-------------------------------
Description:
The constructors for {{org.apache.commons.lang3.Range}} don't play nicely with
abstract classes. Example:
{quote}static abstract class AbstractComparable implements
Comparable<AbstractComparable>
Unknown macro: \{ @Override public int compareTo(AbstractComparable o) Unknown
macro}
}
static class DerivedA extends AbstractComparable {
}
static class DerivedB extends AbstractComparable {
}
// compiles, and reasonable since AbstractComparable is the common parent
static final Range<AbstractComparable> RANGE_MIXED = Range.between(new
DerivedA(), new DerivedB());
// compilers, but unreasonable to force usage of parent class
static final Range<AbstractComparable> RANGE_SAME_CLASS = Range.between(new
DerivedA(), new DerivedA());
// compiler error
static final Range<DerivedA> RANGE_A = Range.between(new DerivedA(), new
DerivedA());
