Simone Tripodi commented on CHAIN-63:
-------------------------------------
Don't worry, that is because you maybe misses some discussions in the dev@ ML -
we agreed on keeping the {{Context}} because users can still customize the
context behavior, (put|get) mrthods would not be enough for all situations.
Development is still on patch, there is a compilation issue discussed in
CHAIN-58, if you're interested on providing help you can apply the latest patch
locally and try to fix the error - remember that to be involved every kind of
contribution is always much more than welcome! :)
> Replace Context with Map<String, ? extends Object>

> Fix For: 2.0

> Hello,
> I always wandered why you *force* chain users to use the Context interface
> which adds nothing over Map. I would understand that if the Context would not
> inherit from map and only required
> Object put(String, Object)
> Object get(String)
> But since Context itself IS Map then you gain nothing while disallowing use
> of Map implementations. I know that sou suggest that Context shall implement
> "Attribute-Property Transparency" but it is only recomendation and is not
> forced by commons chains anyway.
> And if you define execute like
> Object execute(Map<String, ? extends Object> context)
> it can still accept Context instances and all its subclasses.
> The downside is that you would have to give up the retrieve method introduced
> to Context. And BTW the Context imposes hard restriction see my other bug.
