> clever Context with generic type "auto-cast" feature
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CHAIN-56
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHAIN-56
> Project: Commons Chain
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Simone Tripodi
> Assignee: Simone Tripodi
> Fix For: 2.0
>
>
> Generics could help us on improving the Context class; since it is clear that
> Context is a place where storing/retrieving objects identified by a key, I
> propose adding two helper methods:
> {code}
> /** @since 2.0 */
> <T> T retrieve( String key );
> /** @since 2.0 */
> <T> void store( String key, T object );
> {code}
> that would help users avoid the redundant code of type cast/checking when
> assignments are already known (it throws a {{ClassCastException}} if types
> are not assignable). At the same time, old pattern is supported, users can
> choose their
> preferred way to go, depending on their needs.
