Description Martin Marinschek CLA 2011-09-15 13:05:53 EDT 
Build Identifier: 2.2.1

I guess most of the vector occurrences should be replaced, and the NonSynchronized stuff should be replaced with an ArrayList. The issue is also that my IDE (IntelliJ) can not properly handle NonSynchronizedVector's in the Debugger - it is not showing the contents, so this is a nuisance during Debugging. I would think also other developers have this issue.

Reproducible: Always

You can forget about the Debugging part of my statement - this seems to be a JDK issue, according to the IntelliJ issue tracker. In any case the collection handling should definitely be streamlined.

We have changed all internal usages of Vector but struggle to change return types from operations given many customers using older versions and the pain that causes when they upgrade.

There is a work-around listed in bug: 255634

Closing this request as well for now.
