Class ReadOnlyObjects

java.lang.Object

org.kohsuke.github.example.dataobject.ReadOnlyObjects

public final class ReadOnlyObjects
extends Object

GHMeta wraps the list of GitHub's IP addresses.

This class is used to show examples of different ways to create simple read-only data objects. For data objects that can be modified, perform actions, or get other objects we'll need other examples.

IMPORTANT: There is no one right way to do this, but there are better and worse.

• Better: ReadOnlyObjects.GHMetaGettersUnmodifiable is a good balance of clarity and brevity
• Worse: ReadOnlyObjects.GHMetaPublic exposes setters that are not needed, making it unclear that fields are actually read-only
