equals(Object ) on Tuple3d not defined

[twak]

The vecmath Tuple3d class doesn't define equals correctly.

the method missing (from the GPL2'd java3d vecmath) is

    public boolean equals(Object t1)
    {
      try {
           Tuple3d t2 = (Tuple3d) t1;
           return(this.x == t2.x && this.y == t2.y && this.z == t2.z);
      }
      catch (ClassCastException e1) {return false;}
      catch (NullPointerException e2) {return false;}

    }

boolean equals (Tuple3d) isn't enough!

public class NewClass
{
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
        Vector3d v = new Vector3d(1,2,3);
        Point3d p = new Point3d(1,2,3);

        System.out.println(
                v.equals( (Object)p));
        System.out.println(
                v.equals( (Object)new Point3d(1,2,3))== v.equals( p ));
    }
}

Should consider replacing this package with the official vecmath package now it's been GPL'd?

The official vecmath package is now available in karmic. And unofficial vecmath1.2 is likely to be removed from repositories.
