Implementing Generic Interface in Java

Question

I have a Java generics question I was hoping someone could answer. Consider the following code:

public interface Event{}
public class AddressChanged implemen         


        

Answer 1

Unfortunately not. The usual solution (fat, ugly, fast) is to create one Handles interface (i.e. HandlesAddressChange, HandlesAddressDiscarded) and give each of them a different method (handleAddressChange(...), handleAddressDiscarded()).

That way, the Java runtime can tell them apart.

Or you can use anonymous classes.
