[Ozone-users] Replace "this" in *Impl-classes by "self()"?

[Ronny Priv]

Hello,

the userguide says every "this"-keyword in the *Impl-classes needs to be
replaced by the "self()"-method.

I tried that but javac complains because it doesn't know a self-method.
Is it a wrong or old information in the userguide?

thanks
ronny

I *think* this is only required if the method returns an ozone object, which
you'll have to typecast to the return type (which will be the interface). So
instead of


public MyOzoneObjectInterface returnItself(){
return this;
}

...it should be

public MyOzoneObjectInterface returnItself(){
return (MyOzoneObjectInterface)this.self();
}
