Ignat Alexeyenko updated COLLECTIONS-527:
-----------------------------------------
Labels: java8 jdk8 (was: )
> Please create a version commons-collections 3.x for jdk 8 compatibility
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COLLECTIONS-527
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-527
> Project: Commons Collections
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Ignat Alexeyenko
> Priority: Blocker
> Labels: java8, jdk8
> Attachments: COLLECTIONS_3_2_BRANCH_COLLECTIONS_527.patch
>
>
> Could you make a 3.x or 3.2.x
> {code}
> org.apache.commons.collections.MultiHashMap {
> public Object remove(Object key, Object item);
> }
> {code}
> is not compatible with JDK's 8 Map
> {code}
> java.util.Map {
> boolean remove(Object key, Object value);
> }
> {code}
> *Reasoning*
> JDK 8 is here and being adopted. collection-commons are not yet compatible
> with Java 8. For many big project switch to commons-collections 4.x is not an
> option - some transitional release needs to be required.
> Alternative would be for companies to fork commons-collections and create
> their internal artifact. Why do it if the official compatibility version can
> be created?
> Thanks!
