---------------------------------------

             Summary: Consider defining Angle as a subclass of java.lang.Number
                 Key: SIS-296
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-296
             Project: Spatial Information Systems
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Utilities
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
            Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.7


{{org.apache.sis.measure.Angle}} was intentionally defined as *not* extending 
{{java.lang.Number}}. In a previous library this was causing confusion. But a 
few tests suggest that this is not causing confusion anymore with Apache SIS 
design. Considering {{Angle}} as a kind of {{Number}} may help to reduce the 
amount of {{instanceof}} checks in code that are only interested in the 
numerical value.
