Niall Pemberton commented on IO-241:
------------------------------------
The class already has a constructor which takes an Iterable - so that already
covers Lists and more. The varargs constructor is convenient and just because
it generates a warning in an IDE isn't IMO a good enough reason to remove it.
> CompositeFileComparator(Comparator<File>... delegates) - Using varargs for
> non-reifiable type goes against type-safety

> The constructor CompositeFileComparator(Comparator<File>... delegates)
> cannot be used without generating a Type safety warning.
> This is because the type is not reifiable.
> This is a new class, so I suggest this constructor is replaced with something
> that supports type-safety, for example List.
