Tobias Bocanegra commented on JCR-306:
--------------------------------------

i strongly oppose to apply the suggested patch. stefan is right - the internals 
of jackrabbit rely on the fact that the config classes are immutable. we should 
not break this.

i suggest to create some sort of ConfigBuilder which has all the relevant 
getter and setter methods, and a 'create()' method that creates the immutable 
config objects.

> repositoryConfig should use setter for its internal components

> I refactored the config classes last year but didn't change the way
> the config instances are being used by Jackrabbit. In general I think

> letting the components to instantiate any subcomponents based on the
> configuration. This is why I didn't really want to make the config
> constructors public, otherwise we'd easily up with backwards
> compatibility issues if we were to change the way configuration is
