However, I don't understand this comment. Do you mean that a @Category in a subclass should override (i.e. replace) the classes in the @Category from the superclass? Because this is exactly the opposite of what I implemented. I expect that the categories declared in the superclass are included as categories of the subclass, without needing to re-declare them. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
