             Summary: Remove the boolean return value in WritableFeatureSet.removeIf(Predicate)
                 Key: SIS-560
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-560
             Project: Spatial Information Systems
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Storage
    Affects Versions: 1.2, 1.1, 1.0
            Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
             Fix For: 1.4


{{org.apache.sis.storage.WritableFeatureSet}} currently contains the following method:

{code:java}
boolean removeIf(Predicate<? super Feature> filter) throws DataStoreException;
{code}

The {{boolean}} return type may need to be removed. It currently exists for compatibility with the {{Collection.removeIf(Predicate)}} method in case an implementation chooses to implements {{WritableFeatureSet}} and {{java.util.Collection}} in same time. But this is not recommended, and the current method signature is a blocker for deferred method execution. Telling if there is any feature to remove requires immediate execution of the filter, while an implementation may want to wait in case the filtering can be combined with other operations such as {{add(…)}} or {{replaceIf(…)}}.
