What does "properly" mean? I would not enforce the user to implement
equals() on every object, so as long as default equals() implementation
from Object works I'm ok with it.
But Leszek's implementation is not "properly" since it seems only to
handle objects of the same type instead of any object. Usually an
implementation for equals() looks like:
if (this == other) {
return true;
}
if (!(other instance MyClassImplEquals)) {
return false;
}
// now we can safely cast
MyClassImplEquals otherMyClass = (MyClassImplEquals)other;
// do the actual comparison
