Issue 17304: Improve compile-time type safety of EntityQos (dds-psm-java-ftf)
Source: DECA (Mr. Rick Warren, )
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: The EntityQos interface implements java.util.Map. However, all checking of which policies apply to which Entity types is deferred to run time. The extension of Map should be updated to constrain which policies may legally be used.


Proposal: Introduce marker interfaces for each Entity type and parameterize Map with these interfaces.

Improve compile-time type safety of EntityQos

The EntityQos interface implements java.util.Map. However, all checking of which policies apply to which Entity types is deferred to run time. The extension of Map should be updated to constrain which policies may legally be used.

Proposal: Introduce marker interfaces for each Entity type and parameterize Map with these interfaces.
