Stefan Seifert commented on SLING-3887:
---------------------------------------
yes, we should not make it immutable to not break the existing contract.
> API: Un-deprecate ResourceUtil.getValueMap method
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-3887
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3887
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: API 2.8.0
> Reporter: Stefan Seifert
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: API 2.8.2
>
> Attachments: 140827_SLING-3887_getValueMap.patch
>
>
> the method {{ResourceUtil.getValueMap(<Resource>)}} is deprecated since rev.
> 1577527 (in context of SLING-3453/SLING-3451) referring to
> {{Resource.getValueMap()}}.
> but these two methods are not fully equivalent from a convenience
> perspective: {{ResourceUtil.getValueMap}} supports returning an empty map if
> the resource is null, while for the {{Resource.getValueMap()}} an explicit
> null check and returning an empty map has to be implemented by the caller,
> which is too much boilerplate code.
> the simplest solution would be to just undeprecate it. patch attached.
