Create a MutableNumber interface with methods common to all the mutable numbers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LANG-706
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-706
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: lang.mutable.*
Reporter: Juan Carlos Estibariz
Priority: Minor
With this interface it would be possible to perform generic operations on
mutable numbers without worrying about the specific type, e.g.
// these two could be created in a different methods
MutableNumber m = new MutableDouble();
Number n = ...;
// this would do the right thing
m.add(n);
(I'm not just making this up, I have a real use case and I had to create all
the classes myself)
