Q: Warning with generics

Thread view: 
G. Ralph Kuntz, MD - 31 Jul 2006 17:57 GMT
I am trying to write a little class as follows:

public class MyHashMap<K,V >
       extends
           HashMap {
   public MyHashMap add(final K key, final V value) {
       put(key, value);
       return this;
   }
}

Eclipse is giving a warning on the "put" line that it is type unsafe.
How do I fix this?

Thanks.

Although I'd tend to go for having the actual map as a member of that
class, rather than (ab)using inheritance.
