> The classes in question:
> https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/streams/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/streams/state/internals/Segment.java
> and
> https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/streams/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/streams/processor/internals/Stamped.java
> This came up while doing static analysis on the codebase on the trunk branch.
> As described by the analysis tool built into Intellij:
> {quote}
> Reports classes which implement java.lang.Comparable which do not override
> equals(). If equals() is not overridden, the equals() implementation is not
> consistent with the compareTo() implementation. If an object of such a class
> is added to a collection such as java.util.SortedSet, this collection will
> violate the contract of java.util.Set, which is defined in terms of equals().
> {quote}
>
> Implementing an equals for an object is generally a best practice, especially
> considering this caveat, where it's not the compareTo that will be used but
> the equals method.
