Hi, What do people think of the Encoder / Decoder interface in commons-codec? Do people use it?
I know in my own usage patterns of commons-codec, I always go straight for the concrete class that I want, and I never make use of the Encoder / Decoder interface. I'm in grad school right now, and one of the things I'm doing is analyzing every jar, zip, tar, and war in the Maven2 central repository. I could take a look to try and find out how often jars that depend on commons-codec inside Maven2 make use of the Encoder / Decoder interfaces. Of course it doesn't tell us anything about proprietary systems or other systems that are not in Maven2, but it is a pretty big collection of Java these days, might be interesting. -- yours, Julius Davies 604-222-3310 (Home) $ sudo apt-get install cowsay $ echo "Moo." | cowsay | cowsay -n | cowsay -n http://juliusdavies.ca/cowsay/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
