[jboss-dev-forums] [Design the new POJO MicroContainer] - Adding handy isInstance(Object) method to TypeInfo

I'm thinking about adding convenient isInstance method to TypeInfo. On ClassInfoImpl/JavassistTypeInfo it would use getType::isInstance, but on PrimitiveInfo it would still look into progression. The method would hide simple impl detail. | TypeInfo ti = ...; | Object value = ...; // not null | | //long version | TypeInfoFactory tif = ti.getTypeInfoFactory(); | TypeInfo other = tif.getTypeInfo(value.getClass()); | boolean isInstance = ti.isAssignableFrom(other); | | // short | boolean isInstance = ti.isInstance(value); | | // where this doesn't consider progression | boolean isInstance = ti.getType().isInstance(value); | OK?
