[jira] [Commented] (SLING-4565) Override equals/hashcode for JSON entities

["Timothee Maret (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4565?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14996234#comment-14996234 ] 

Timothee Maret commented on SLING-4565:
---------------------------------------

[~sseifert@pro-vision.de] I think you are right wrt to the performance penalty. It makes sense to avoid deep comparison by default. Deep comparison may be provided as an util or extra method. But that's outside the initial scope of this issue. Closing.

> This issue is about implementing equals/hashCode on those entities in order to allow meaningful comparisons.
