Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-2490:
---------------------------------------------

No, Mike is right. I made it worse for swap and toMapEntry. It seems there's no 
good way to do that, except to pass in the desired class as a parameter, which 
isn't very friendly or useful, either. Thanks for catching/reverting that Mike, 
I'll limit the improvements to just fromEntry and fix it.

> Pair.fromEntry should accept bounded wild card parameters

> The following \[psuedo-]code should be legal:
> {code}
> Entry<Integer, String> entry = new Entry(10, "IO")
> Pair<Object,Object> pair = Pair.fromEntry(entry)
> {code}
> This is possible if we replace the generic parameters with bounded wild cards.
