Ignat Alexeyenko created COLLECTIONS-527: --------------------------------------------
Summary: Please create a version commons-collections 3.x for jdk 8 compatibility Key: COLLECTIONS-527 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-527 Project: Commons Collections Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Ignat Alexeyenko Priority: Blocker Attachments: COLLECTIONS_3_2_BRANCH_COLLECTIONS_527.patch Could you make a 3.x or 3.2.x {code} org.apache.commons.collections.MultiHashMap { public Object remove(Object key, Object item); } {code} is not compatible with JDK's 8 Map {code} java.util.Map { boolean remove(Object key, Object value); } {code} *Reasoning* JDK 8 is here and being adopted. collection-commons are not yet compatible with Java 8. For many big project switch to commons-collections 4.x is not an option - some transitional release needs to be required. Alternative would be for companies to fork commons-collections and create their internal artifact. Why do it if the official compatibility version can be created?
