[Collections] Is commons collections dormant ?

Hi ! I was curious wether Commons Collections is dormant or not , since last release is from 2010 and this release doesnt support generics. With regards , Leandro A. Pezzente

Re: [Collections] Is commons collections dormant ?

Hi, finally I've found the time to answer to this topic :) We had a similar discussion a while ago [1]. Back then James suggested to drop collections completely in favor of google guava. I have started to implement QueryableCollections in trunk anyway, because I still disagree with James. I w

Re: [Collections] Is commons collections dormant ?

Guava is a fine product but I'd like to see a generics version of [collections]. I wonder what state trunk is in and if could be released soon... Gary On Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 1:13 PM, Ted Dunning wrote: > I would recommend guava over collections as well so it sounds like you > disagree with bot

Yes , i know , but , arent other products like Tomcat 7.0 being hurt by being dependent on a pre-generics version of Commons Collections ? Leandro A. Pezzente On miércoles, 15 de febrero de 2012 at 3:23 PM, Gary Gregory wrote:Guava is a fine product but I'd like to see a generics version of [col

Re: [Collections] Is commons collections dormant ?

As far as I can tell, it looks pretty generified ;) But as I said, I'm having that name clash error. Okay, so it is consensus, that no more effort (regarding new features) should be put into collections? Benedikt Am 15.02.2012 19:23, schrieb Gary Gregory: Guava is a fine product but I'd like

Bene, please have a look at the javadoc before and see why get(K) cannot be added. HTH, -Simo http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ http://simonetripodi.livejournal.com/ http://twitter.com/simonetripodi http://www.99soft.org/

Re: [Collections] Is commons collections dormant ?

Thomas , You are right , maybe using Tomcat as an example was not really an appropiate example. Maybe I should have used Hibernate or Apache Derby as an example , but you already answered my question regarding wheter or not generics can afffect such products , wich its actually reassuring despise

Hi, thanks for the hint. Maybe I gave too little context to my question. I wasn't trying to add something to MultiMap. It is checked in this way in the repo. So I guess get(K key) in MultiMap will never work and can be considered broken (and a ticket should be filed)? Benedikt Am 15.02.201
