Christian Schulte reopened MNG-6164:
------------------------------------
> Collections inconsistently immutable.
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6164
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6164
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Christian Schulte
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 3.5.1-candidate
>
>
> There are plenty of places where empty collections are returned from public API methods like:
> {code}
> public List<Exception> getExceptions()
> {
> return exceptions == null ? Collections.<Exception> emptyList() : exceptions;
> }
> {code}
> The issue with this is that the empty list is immutable but the collection returned for the nun-null case is not immutable. All those methods should return an immutable collection consistently.
