lambda binary snapshots

[Ryan Musgrave]

Hi Arul,

The implementation in the Comparators class accepts the woven instance as
the first parameter. Example:

Comparator <Integer> example = ...
Comparator <Integer> someOther Comparator = ...
example.compose ( someOthercomparator);

// Invokes this method:
Comparators.compose(example, someOtherComparator);

At least, that's how I think it works for the user.
