P.P.S. Ok, I founded hier Javers Comparing Lists following comment
There is no concept of move in JaVers list comparison algorithms. After a move there will be two changes reported: ValueAdded and ValueRemoved, just like you have mentioned.
But how then I can recognize, that the list actually has not been changed?
P.S. Even if I get @Entities and @Id to ZasFish, ZasCatchZone and ZasCatchArea I still get Diff: 1. NewObject{globalId:'my.javers.comparator.ZasFish/2'} 2. ObjectRemoved{globalId:'my.javers.comparator.ZasFish/1'}
I'm trying to compare lists of custom objects. I set LEVENSHTEIN_DISTANCE and created custom comparators. The only difference between objects is the order of values in the lists. I would expect "no changes", but I got ListChange. The result and example is below. What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks and regards, Andrej
