Thanks, Dominic. I used your message as an incentive to replace our
Pair constructor with an "of" factory method. And yes, it does a great
job of cleaning things up! I hit one snag. Is there a way around the
following compilation problem?
public class PairTest {
/*
* The Pair.of() call below yields the following compilation
error: Type
* mismatch: cannot convert from Pair<Class<capture#1-of ? extends
* Exception>,Class<capture#2-of ? extends Exception>> to
Pair<Class<?
* extends Exception>,Class<? extends Exception>>
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
Class<? extends Exception> foo;
Class<? extends Exception> bar;
// Original line with constructor.
Pair<Class<? extends Exception>, Class<? extends Exception>>
compiles = new Pair<Class<? extends Exception>, Class<? extends
Exception>>(
foo, bar);
// Failed attempt at using of.
Pair<Class<? extends Exception>, Class<? extends Exception>>
doesntCompile = Pair.of(
foo, bar);
}
}
