DeploymentRestResourcesDefintion inner classes override compareTo, but not equals() and hashcode() -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-7935 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7935 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: REST Affects Versions: 10.1.0.Final Reporter: Romain Pelisse Assignee: Romain Pelisse Priority: Minor JaxrsResourceMethodDescription [1] and JaxrsResourceLocatorDescription [2] classes override compareTo() method but they don't override equals() and hascode(). Javadoc says [3]: "It is strongly recommended (though not required) that natural orderings be consistent with equals. " Implemented compareTo() compares object based on the class name, but the default implementation of Object for equals() compares objects based on the object reference, thus there is inconsistency.
