Joerg Schaible commented on LANG-500:
-------------------------------------

You might improve this even more:

{code}
public static List<Class<?>> getAllInterfaces(Class<?> clazz)
    {
        if (clazz == null)
        {
            return null;
        }

        Map<Class<?>, Object> interfacesMap = new LinkedHashMap<Class<?>, 
Object>();

        getAllInterfaces(clazz, interfacesMap);

        return new ArrayList<Class<?>>(interfacesMap.getKeys());
    }

    private static void getAllInterfaces(Class<?> clazz, Map<Class<?>, Object> 
interfacesMap)
    {
        while (clazz != Object.class)
        {
            Class<?>[] interfaces = clazz.getInterfaces();

            for (Class<?> i : interfaces)
            {
                if (!interfacesMap.put(i, null))
                {
                    getAllInterfaces(i, interfacesMap);
                }
            }

            clazz = clazz.getSuperclass();
        }
    }
{code}

Remember, the HasSet is using a HashMap internally anyway ...

However, as always with "more efficient" implementations: It would actually be 
nice to have some numbers from a real profiler.
