Sebb updated LANG-564:
----------------------
Summary: Improve StrLookup API documentation (was: StrLookup API is
confused)
> Improve StrLookup API documentation
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-564
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-564
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: lang.text.*
> Reporter: Sebb
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> The API for StrLookup is confused. The class has been partly genericised, but
> why?
> The Javadoc says the class is for looking up Strings which are indexed by
> Strings, and this agrees with the method lookup()
> Surely if the class is generic on <V>, the lookup() method should return V,
> not String?
> Does it make any sense for the class to return anything but a String? If not,
> then why is the class generic?
> If it does make sense, then lookup() should return V.
