Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-5920:
--------------------------------------
saw some interesting refactorings, but sometimes others might be missed. Here's
an example:
In QuickTypeSelectionDialog, the original:
{code:java}
Collections.sort(types, new Comparator<Type>() {
@Override
public int compare(Type o1, Type o2) {
return o1.getName().compareTo(o2.getName());
}
});
{code}
The refactored:
{code:java}
types.sort(new Comparator<Type>() {
@Override
public int compare(Type o1, Type o2) {
return o1.getName().compareTo(o2.getName());
}
});
{code}
The improved refactoring (not done by the automated tool) avoids creating a new
instance of a subclass of Comparator
{code:java}
types.sort((Type o1, Type o2) -> o1.getName().compareTo(o2.getName());
{code}
> Refactor the CAS Editor to use Java 8 features

> All the Cas Editor code was written before more modern features of Java 7 and
> 8 became available. It would be nice to refactor the source code and make use
> of modern language features where it makes sense.
