Re: Generics of IDataProvider

[Sebastiaan van Erk]

Shouldn't it be pretty easy to replace IDataProvider with a super type which takes both type parameters and defining IDataProvider<T> as extends IWhatever<T, T>. Haven't thought about how this would break the API and backwards compatability though. :-))

hi maurice,

Trust me there are plenty :)

i assume your talking about an increase of 100 occurences * 6 bytes = 600 bytes increased (unnecessary) code. ;-)

I do like the idea of dropping the model method but am not sure
Martijn wil sanction such an api break, since 1.4 is supposed to be a
drop in replacement (well almost).

so wrapping the iterator returned by the dao wouldn't be a big thing.




best regards, --- jan.

if the model would be dropped - i could wrap generation of the model without much hassle, too, since all i do in model is def model( obj: AnyRef ): IModel = new IdLoadableDetachableModel( obj.asInstanceOf[Int] ) { @Override protected def load: T = idLoader( getId ).get } as it is now - the iterator has to be of type T, too - and that just simply doesn't work for me now.
