Sebb commented on BCEL-239:
---------------------------
Note: I've just checked, and code can update entries in a final array defined
in an interface.
> Interfaces should not be used to define constants

> Interfaces should not be used to define constants.
> This is often done as a way to save typing the name of a class that defines
> the constants. However using an interface pollutes any implementing classes
> with all the constant names, even if they are not used.
> This issue applies to
> Constants
> ExceptionConstants
> InstructionConstants
