Hi all,
Is there any reason there are two different, but similar in functionality,
methods on the Message API?
getContent( Class<T> clazz ) and get( Class<T> clazz ) both seem to do pretty
much the same thing. Just a bit confusing when I accidently use them
interchangably.
I also noticed that setContent doesn't enforce the generic type properly.
<T> void setContent(Class<T> format, Object content);
<T> T getContent(Class<T> format);
Would allow class and object types to be incompatible and then a subsequent
call to getContent() would ClassCastException.
e.g.
// compiles ok
setContent( XMLStreamReader.class, new Integer( 0 ) );
// fails at runtime despite generic "safety"
XMLStreamReader xmlStreamReader = getContent( XMLStreamReader.class );
The get/put pairing enforces this correctly.
Cheers.
