HI Tim,
This project interests me. Would like to know more about it.
Could you please explain this better?
I am confused, what will I do if I want my class's objects to be
compared using XYZ.equals();?
Will I write it as:
@XYZ
public class MyClass{
...
...
...
}
or
@Annot(equals="XYZ" compareTo="MyComparator")
public class MyClass{
...
...
...
}
LMK.
