Mikhail Antonov commented on HBASE-13273:
-----------------------------------------

2 options I can see is to make EMPTY_RESULT object private and provide method 
getEmptyResult(), returning new cloned empty Result, or make Result object 
immutable (which means copyFrom() method should be removed)? Doesn't look like 
backward-compatible either?

> Make Result.EMPTY_RESULT read-only; currently it can be modified

> Again from [~larsgeorge]
>     Result result2 = Result.EMPTY_RESULT;
>     System.out.println(result2);
>     result2.copyFrom(result1);
>     System.out.println(result2);
> "What do you think happens when result1 has cells? Yep, you just modified the 
> shared public EMPTY_RESULT to be not empty anymore."
> Fix. Result should be non-modifiable post-construction.
