--------------------------
Summary: Fluent API in {{RandomStringBuilder}}
Key: TEXT-38
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEXT-38
Project: Commons Text
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Gilles
Fix For: 1.0
It can be construed as potentially dangerous to let user code change any of the
settings of the builder, as other parts of the code could be using a reference
to the same instance.
In Commons Math, where the fluent API pattern was applied, a new builder
(immutable) instance would be created. For example, see [this
