> Key: COLLECTIONS-504
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-504
> Project: Commons Collections
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Map
> Affects Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Peter Cooper Jr.
> Priority: Minor
>
> I'm attempting to composite two maps, one of which is a {{Map<String, String>}} and the other of which is a {{Map<String, Object>}}. I would have expected that I could composite them into a {{CompositeMap<String, Object>}}, but the constructors of CompositeMap expect all of the maps being composited to have exactly the same type arguments.
> That is, I think the constructors should take arguments of {{Map<? extends K, ? extends V>}} instead of what they currently have of {{Map<K, V>}}, much like most collection methods, since there shouldn't be a problem accepting type arguments that are subtypes of the composite map types.
> Thanks!
