Hi, I started with LANG-1499 ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/LANG/issues/LANG-1499 ) . I'm looking for a mentor to work with, get to know the rules and practices around. Below are my findings on LANG-1499.
- In the current implementation, if given *LHS* and *RHS* objects are not in the same hierarchy (Parent-Child classes) then *EqualsBuilder.reflectionEquals* method will always return false without further validations. - In documentation ( https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/builder/EqualsBuilder.html) it says " *This method uses reflection to determine if the two Object**s are equal.*" That does not describe more on how they are checked for equality. - As per the example in the LANG-1499 it implies any two Instances with same *fields* and having same *values for those fields* should be return true. ( Since at the end every Class is extends by Object class ). Please let me know if you can mentor me this. *Best Regards **Asanka Amarasinghe* On Sun, Jan 26, 2020 at 2:26 PM Asanka Amarasinghe <ahamarasin...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Gilles, > > Thanks for the support.
