Benedikt Ritter commented on SANDBOX-493:
-----------------------------------------
Go for it! IMHO we can even update to Java 8 and make StringMetric extend
java.util.function.BiFunction. Java 7 is almost EOL...
> Change (R) StringMetric.compare(CS left, CS right) to "apply" so that it is
> consistent with BiFunction.

> Key: SANDBOX-493
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SANDBOX-493
> Project: Commons Sandbox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Commons Text
> Reporter: Jonathan Baker
> Priority: Minor
>
> Whenever commons-text supports Java 8, StringMetric<R> should extend
> BiFunction<CharSequence, CharSequence, R>. Renaming "compare" to "apply" now
> will make that transition smoother later.
