Well, this is what is excplicitly documented in the JDK's docs for Comparable.compareTo(). The ValueEnum must ensure that it does not compare apples and oranges and two different classes imply this. The exception was surprising for you, since the old version of CL simply did this, but I'd rather declare that impl of compareTo as buggy ;-) - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
