http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29294 [lang][PATCH] lang.math.Fraction class deficiencies ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-06-02 21:21 ------- While we're changing Fraction: the multiplyBy and divideBy methods should be renamed 'multiply' and 'divide' to match standard Java convention: see for example the BigInteger class. There's some discussion of (eventually) adding operator overloading to Java, which would use these 'standard named methods', so this could become even more important than it is at present. The next patch, which is separated out from the others and should be applied *after* attachment #11701, simply deprecates the current names and adds new methods with the 'correct' names. Old code will continue to work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
