> The last update of Attribute API using AttributeImpl as implementation oif
> Attributes changed the API a little bit. This change leads to the fact, that
> in Java 1.5 using generics we are no longer able to add Attributes without
> casting. addAttribute and getAttribute should return the Attribute interface
> because the implementation of the attribute is not interesting to the caller.
> By that in 1.5 using generics, one could add a TermAttribute without casting
> using:
> <code>
> TermAttribute termAtt = addAttribute(TermAttribute.class);
> </code>
> The signature to do this is:
> <code>
> public K addAttribute(Class<K extends Attribute>)
> </code>
> The attached patch applies the mentioned change to the signature (without
> generic, only returning Attribute). No other code cahnges are needed, as
> current code always casts the result to the requested interface. I also added
> the 1.5 method signature for all these methods to the javadocs.
> All tests pass.
