Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-261:
--------------------------------------
I like having schemas immutable. This patch looks like a good step in that
direction. setProp() is still problematic, however. (It's also the reason
that the primitive schemas aren't singletons: I think the reflect API annotates
the primitive types with stuff.) I also wish that we could just get rid of
setFields() altogether, relying on the constructor.

> It would be nice if there was the ability to have an immutable Schema in
> java.
> Without this, it makes sharing schemas risky. Also, with this, we could
> (lazily) cache the hashCode which is a fairly expensive operation today,
> especially on something like a record.
