Generics and wildcards
----------------------

                 Key: JBRULES-2847
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2847
             Project: Drools
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: drools-api
    Affects Versions: 5.2.0.M1
            Reporter: Maxence Dewil
            Assignee: Mark Proctor
            Priority: Minor

Not really a bug but a proposal of improvement:

Example:

ksession.startProcess("myprocess", Collections.singletonMap("myParam", "paramValue"));
-> Then Eclipse displays an error: "The method startProcess(String, Map<String, Object>) in the type ProcessRuntime is not applicable for the arguments (String, Map<String,String>)"

The signature of startProcess should be instead:
ProcessInstance startProcess(String processId, Map<String, ?> parameters);
