> Key: MIFOS-4436
> URL: http://mifosforge.jira.com/browse/MIFOS-4436
> Project: mifos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Technical Discussion
> Reporter: Michael Vorburger
> Assignee: mifosdeveloperqueue
> Fix For: Unscheduled
>
>
> In MIFOS-4435 I've found a subtle bug, typical for the times from before when
> we had type safe generics in Java.
> MIFOS-4435 has a patch for that specific issue. This issue generalizes the
> problem, and suggests that it may be worthwhile to invest some Mifos dev time
> to fully adopt Java Generics in all of Mifos code, AKA remove all the "... is
> a raw type. References to generic type ... should be parameterized" warnings
> seen in Eclipse today.
> This will lead to better type safety and avoid bugs in the future, and may
> identify other bugs à la MIFOS-4435 in the existing code base.
> Note that such bugs typically do not lead to unnoticed subtle functional
> issues at runtime, but type case exceptions at runtime. The value of doing
> this work would be in identifying such bugs at compile time.
