[jira] [Resolved] (SANDBOX-364) Adding generic weight type to model

["Simone Tripodi (Resolved) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Simone Tripodi resolved SANDBOX-364.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
      Assignee: Simone Tripodi

Thanks once again for your contributions Claudio, really appreciated!

After a first look I was a little in trouble on removing the {{Comparable}} interface from {{WeightedEdge}}, but the super {{Monoid}} fills the gap in a more elegant way - at least, under a Mathematical PoV the new version looks much more elegant!!! 

Patch applied, see [r1234551|https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1234551]

I applied just 2 minor modifications to your patch:

 * I didn't modify the {{FibonacciHeap}} wich is a general purpose queue;
 * I moved the anonymous {{Comparator}} in {{Kruskal}} implementation in a private static inner class

Thanks once again!

> Hello,
> with this patch I introduce generic weight types in all the implementations of the domain (mainly classes in the {{model}} packages both in {{main}} and {{test}}). Consequently I updated tests and references to be fully generic.
> One side effect is that {{WeightedEdge}} does not implement {{Comparable}} anymore, because that would imply passing it a {{Comparator}} for weights as an argument upon creation. Instead, without polluting {{WeightedEdge}}, I changed the classes where it was needed to be {{Comparable}} (e.g. in {{Kruskal}} there is a {{PriorityQueue}} that is now initialized with an appropriate {{Comparator}} instead of relying on {{Comparable}} edges).
> All tests are green. Hoping to help :-)
