Hi Joe,
This looks okay to me.
I guess we don't have any tests for that code in EventRequestSpecList!
Guess not!
Pity about the constant need for suppressing "unchecked" :(
At least better once per type in the libraries rather than than once at
every call-site.
The clone method would be a good use-case for self types, but adding
those to Java remains a research-class problem.
Thanks for the review,
-Joe
Cheers,
David

Hello,
As an indirect outgrowth of warnings cleanup day, various categories of
warnings can be eliminated by in the use of Cloneable types by
overriding the
Object clone()
method inherited from java.lang.Object with a covariant override such as
MyType clone()
Please review my changes for
7140820 Add covariant overrides to Collections clone methods
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/7140820.0/
which add such covariant override clone methods to collections and a few
other classes in java.util. Doing a full JDK build with these changes,
I've also made alterations to other classes to remove now superfuous
casts (casts which are a javac lint warning!) and some unneeded
@SuppressWarnings annotations. I also cleaned up a few rawtypes warnings
while in editing files in java.util.
(Note that the old specListeners method in EventRequestSpecList.java was
much buggy; it cast an ArrayList from runtime.specListeners to a
Vector.)
Thanks,
