Thomas Fox reassigned TORQUE-160:
---------------------------------
Assignee: Thomas Fox
> Criteria should not inherit from hashtable
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TORQUE-160
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TORQUE-160
> Project: Torque
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Thomas Fox
> Assignee: Thomas Fox
> Fix For: 4.0
>
>
> The reasons for suggesting this are:
> - Criteria is not a logical specialisation of a Hash map.
> - To retain current signatures and comply with java5 generics, Criteria would
> have to be declared as HashMap<String, Object>, while technically it is a
> HashMap<String, Criteria.Criterion>
> - the current "put" method does not follow the contract of a Map's put method:
> Criteria.put() returns the Criteria itself, whereas Map.put() returns the
> value which previously had the passed key.
> Also, if you put() an object into a criteria and then get() the same key,
> you do not receive the object you put() but a Criteria.Criterion containing
> the object you put in. This is also not the behaviour expected by a map.
