Gilles commented on MATH-424:
-----------------------------
I knew about this one. I didn't "clone" because I figured out that one should
be pretty pervert to fiddle with data coming from an exception. At that point,
the only sane thing would be to examine/print the content...
So this is an optimization to avoid copying the data several times (see the
accessor methods in the subclass {{MatrixDimensionMismatchException}}).
> MultiDimensionMismatchException.getWrongDimensions() fails to clone the array
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sebb
>
> MultiDimensionMismatchException.getWrongDimensions() returns a pointer to the
> array, which allows callers to modify it.
> The constructor takes care to clone the input array, so presumably the getter
> should do so too?
> Same applies to getExpectedDimensions()
