------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Refactor AdaptiveFeatureGenerator and FeatureGeneratorAdapter
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OPENNLP-856
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-856
> Project: OpenNLP
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Name Finder
> Affects Versions: 1.7.0
> Reporter: Jeff Zemerick
> Assignee: Joern Kottmann
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: feature, features, generator, java1.8
> Fix For: 1.7.0
>
>
> Under the package opennlp.tools.util.featuregen there is an interface
> AdaptiveFeatureGenerator and an abstract class FeatureGeneratorAdapter. The
> interface defines the createFeatures(), updateAdaptiveData(), and
> clearAdaptiveData() methods. The abstract class implements this interface to
> provide default implementations of the updateAdaptiveData() and
> clearAdaptiveData() functions. Feature generators then either implement the
> interface or extend the abstract class.
> The purpose of this task is to refactor these classes to remove confusion
> caused by the similarity between the interface and the abstract class. This
> task deprecates the AdaptiveFeatureGenerator interface in favor of the
> abstract class FeatureGeneratorAdapter.
> Default methods will be added to the AdaptiveFeatureGenerator interface to
> maintain backward compatibility. To support the default methods the version
> of the Java compiler will be set to 1.8.
