Configuration.getProperty returns a Dictionary which is not entirely private
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-890
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-890
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Configuration Admin
Affects Versions: configadmin-1.0.4, configadmin-1.0.8
Reporter: Felix Meschberger
Assignee: Felix Meschberger
Fix For: configadmin-1.0.10
According to the specification of the Configuration.getProperties() method in
104.15.2.6, the dictionary returned "is a private copy for the caller and may
be changed without influencing the stored configuration".
This is not currently the case for array and vector/collection properties:
Updating the array or vector/collection is reflected in the internal data
structure kept by the configuration manager because only the internal
Dictionary is copied into a new Dictionary while the values are copied by
reference.
Actually a full deep copy of the dictionary is required.
