Re: Java driver DBCollection interface parametrization

[Jeff Yemin]

Thanks for your interest, Artem.

We are working on a generics-based approach for the 3.0 version of the Java driver.  If you'd like to be an early tester, please drop me a line and let me know.

Jeff

Hi!

I was wandering, why is java driver's DBCollection parametrized with DBObject and not with generic type? It is possible to provide custom solution for serializing/deserializing with DBEncoderFactory, but one is limited to wrapping custom classes with DBObject... It limits a bit libraries, such as mongo-jackson-mapper.

Are there any plans/wishes to implement this? I've poked around in the source codes and implemented it (all default methods operate with DBCollection<DBObject>, so interoperability with 3-party code should not be a problem), would you be interested in pull-request?

Thanks!
