             Summary: TypeUtils.ParameterizedType#equals doesn't work with 
wildcard types
                 Key: LANG-1114
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1114
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: lang.reflect.*
    Affects Versions: 3.4, 3.3.2
            Reporter: andrew coates


There is a bug in TypeUtils.equals(WilcardType, Type).  It returns true if the 
other type is not a WildcardType, it should return false.  See TypeUtils@1629 
for v3.3.2 and TypeUtils@791 for v3.4

Bug can be seen with the following test:

{code}
@Test
    public void shouldHandleEqualityOfParameterizedTypesWithWildcards() throws 
Exception {
        // Given:
        class SomeType {
            Collection<?> field;
        }

        final ParameterizedType wildcardCollectionType = (ParameterizedType) 
SomeType.class.getDeclaredField("field").getGenericType();
        final WildcardType wildcard = (WildcardType) 
wildcardCollectionType.getActualTypeArguments()[0];
        final ParameterizedType ptWithWildcard = 
TypeUtils.parameterize(Collection.class, wildcard);
        final ParameterizedType otherPt = 
TypeUtils.parameterize(Collection.class, String.class);

        // Then:
        assertThat(otherPt, is(not(equalTo(ptWithWildcard))));  // Passes
        assertThat(ptWithWildcard, is(not(equalTo(otherPt))));  // Fails
    }
{code}
