Const methods and references to const are covered by Java RFE 4211070 in Sun's bug database under http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/ . It now has 70 votes, and is (barely) in the top 25 requests for enhancements. To stay there, it will need more votes.

... Shall the library make copies of objects it receives or shall that be leaved to the users of the library. The first solution is the safe one, while the last is optimal for performance. I have been told java3d has changed philosophi at that point from saving copies in the library to just saving handles to the users object - very dangerous thing to change.
Sorry for the long answer, but you hit the point, where java has disappointed me the most, having programmed in C++ for about 12 years - else I like java very much. I would realy like to hear other opinions on this theme.

kind regards
