compare
public BeanComparison compare(Object x,
Object y)
- Description copied from interface:

- Compare two things.
- Specified by:
compare
in interface Comparer<Object>
- Parameters:
x
- One thing.y
- The other thing.

and y is null.
getType
public Class<Object> getType()
- Description copied from interface:
Comparer
- The type of the things.
Note that we would have liked the return type
to be Class<T>
but we could not then have had a
Comparer<Iterable<MatchableGroup>>
because it's not possible to
return a type of Class<Iterable<MatchableGroup>>
in Java.
If there is a solution to this then please let us know.
- Specified by:
getType
in interface Comparer<Object>
- Returns:
- The type. Must not be null.
