Bill,
The warnings were from compiling code (using JDK 1.5) that did not
use generics (since they did not exist in JDK 1.4) eg:
Set s = getASet();
So, NO, I did not use generics incorrectly. I used JDK 1.4 facilities
available at the time, correctly.
And yes, I did not consider such warnings bugs. But definitely work
addressing.
