I'd enforce it. If a getter guarantees to provide a refined type, it could as well make it explicit on the signature. There is no (sane) reason to refuse fixing the signature, if you know for sure what you're returning will be compatible. Worst case the implementor will need to explicitly downcast, but when the CCE strikes he'll easily see his mistake. >> It seems like a small flexibility loss and we would gain clearer error >> messages: if something is annotated @TikaBridge and we don’t support the >> type we will fail fast. > > Fail fast sounds good. +1 > > —Hardy > > > _______________________________________________ > hibernate-dev mailing list > hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org > https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
