[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of POJO Server] - ProfileService Server.getMetadata() - immutable OK?

[ALRubinger]

Probably this one's for Scott/Emanuel:

http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/bootstrap/trunk/spi-as/src/main/java/org/jboss/bootstrap/spi/as/server/JBossASBasedServer.java:

  /**
  |     * Get the optional server configuration metadata
  |     * 
  |     * @return A possibly empty map of configuration metadata
  |     */
  |    Map<String, Object> getMetaData();

Can I wrap this in Collection.unmodifiableMap() when returning so we don't leak out the mutable state of the server?  Or is something in the ProfileService depending upon altering the contents?

S,
ALR
