Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on SANDBOX-493:
--------------------------------------------
+1 from me. I like how compare gives an idea of that the method is clearly
doing, but if it will make the transition to Java 8 easier, than I'd say let's
change it.
What do you think [~britter]?
> Change (R) StringMetric.compare(CS left, CS right) to "apply" so that it is
> consistent with BiFunction.

> Key: SANDBOX-493
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SANDBOX-493
> Project: Commons Sandbox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Commons Text
> Reporter: Jonathan Baker
> Priority: Minor
>
> Whenever commons-text supports Java 8, StringMetric<R> should extend
> BiFunction<CharSequence, CharSequence, R>. Renaming "compare" to "apply" now
> will make that transition smoother later.
