I am getting Stackoverflow whenever below code is ran. I am not able to understand why this is happening? And how we can fix it?
public boolean compare(List<Task> source, List<Task> actual) {
return compareTasks(source, actual) && compare(actual, source);
}
public boolean compareTasks(List<Task> source, List<Task> actual) {
matchList = new ArrayList<Task>();
differList = new ArrayList<Task>();
for (Task task : actual) {
if (source.contains(task)) {
matchList.add(task);
} else {
differList.add(task);
}
}
return (differList.size() == 0) ? true : false;
}
Below is the error:
java.lang.StackOverflowError
at java.lang.StringBuilder.append(StringBuilder.java:119)
at com.user.test.Task.getKey(Task.java:209)
at com.user.test.Task.equals(Task.java:220)

at java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableCollection.contains(Collections.java:1000)
I believe the issue is in here:
public boolean compare(List<Task> source, List<Task> actual) {
return compareTasks(source, actual) && compare(actual, source);
}
Imagine you want to compare list A to list B. If you'll notice:
This recursion never terminates, so it eventually triggers a stack overflow.
To fix this issue, consider rewriting this as
public boolean compare(List<Task> source, List<Task> actual) {
return compareTasks(source, actual) && compareTasks(actual, source); // call compareTasks, not compare.
}
You are calling compareTasks again in the method. Change it to the following line: return compareTasksList(source, actual) && compareTasksList(actual, source);
