Yes, there is added complexity, but "no gain" I really disagree with. Your API's become much clearer when you use them, and especially with a big framework like WO, knowing what objects are coming back out of methods is really helpful.

Maybe it's a bit hard to say "no gain" but the gain I get has a tendency to be nothing compared to the complexity generics add. And I even don't think, that they make code easier to read - just less flexible.


I really like that article about generics:
