The alternative is rather ugly. You don't want to sometimes write == (value objects) and sometimes write .equals() (non-value objects, method name won't always be the same, e.g. we have isEqualNode() already). I guess for now we should just go with url.equals(url2) then and see where that takes us. (Alex feels more strongly about this than I do.) -- http://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
