That doesn't make sense to me. IComparable.compareTo takes in an Object not another type so it shouldn't care about generics.

The thing is, *generics don't really exist* in compiled java classes and we always need to explicitly supply which class the Comparable compares. Hence the solution is, you add appropriate instantiated generic interface to Metadata.xml. This is an example: <attr path="/api/package[@name='android.content']/class[@name='ComponentName']/implements[@name='java.lang.Comparable']" name="name">java.lang.Comparable<android.content.ComponentName></attr> Atsushi Eno Jeremy A.
