      What is wrong with final methods in the derived class

       

      public class Parent {
  public Object doThing() {}
}

public class Child extends Parent {
  @Override
  public final Object doThing() { ... } 
}

assert Util.isOverridden(Parent.class, Child.class, "doThing") : "Sadly this is not true for the past 4 years"
