Need source code w/ lots of generics

[Ian Pilcher]

I am working on updating the Java syntax highlighting rules in NEdit
(http://www.nedit.org) to handle generics, and I need some code to
really torture it.

Any pointers to one or two source files that really push generics to
their limits (multiple types, nesting, extends, super, comments in
unorthodox places, etc.) would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I recommend Examples 105 through 139 from my book Java Precisely. You
can get the example as a jar or zip file from

http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~sestoft/javaprecisely/

Especially Examples 138 and 139 should exercise your highlighter, and
there is a good selection of wildcard examples too.
