hmm... there's a missing image in the article... could someone provide link to the intended content? - Blueshade 13:10, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge BaseBean

I think BaseBean should be merged with this article, and have added the concept of base class to this article to support both the merge, and the existing redirect. However I don't know enough explicitly about the Java BaseBean object to do this final step with authority. --FredThwaites 21:46, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

I disagree: they are unrelated subjects, sharing only the same object. I wouldn't merge an article about "an apple for the teacher" with an article about "the apple in art". 218.214.18.240 11:19, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I disagree: BaseBean is a language specific (Java) article, while the concept of a Superclass relates to Object-oriented Programming in general. D. Shaw 23:46, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

I disagree: BaseBean should not be merged with super class because its a different concept. http://www.muzay.com

[edit] Overly Specific

I think this article should be relabeled Superclass (Java Programming Language)
C++ refers to the Java Superclass as Base class, as does C#
Ada refers to these Superclasses as Parents or base types

I think this could be confusing to others as well since Java's use of the term super, is backwards. The term superclass, at least to me, seems similar to a superset. I don't think this is a stretch. --Ephogy (talk) 12:44, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
