["Roger Whitcomb (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-999?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16354620#comment-16354620 ] 

Roger Whitcomb commented on PIVOT-999:
--------------------------------------

Remove the "putInt" and "putBoolean" default methods from Dictionary because they really aren't needed (with autoboxing).  Add a default "copy" method:

Sending core\src\org\apache\pivot\collections\Dictionary.java
Sending core\test\org\apache\pivot\collections\test\DictionaryTest.java
Sending wtk\src\org\apache\pivot\wtk\Component.java
Transmitting file data ...done

Committed revision 1823398.

> Some features that we could potentially use include:
> * default methods in interfaces to extend features while maintaining backward compatibility
> * lambdas for such things as callbacks
> * really use functional interfaces (already kind of present, but not really used)
> * "forEach" in many places for Iterable collections
