Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-4787:
--------------------------------------

The initial PR is just a proof-of-concept. It seems that the real PR will touch 
hundreds of files, and also require dependent projects (who have written their 
own rules) to make changes. So this will be a very breaking change.

> Evaluate use of Immutables instead of ImmutableBeans

> In the creation of CALCITE-3328, [Immutables|https://immutables.github.io/] 
> was discussed as an alternative to a custom implementation. This ticket is to 
> evaluate the impact to the codebase of changing. Ideally, introduction of 
> immutables would both add flexibility and reduce the amount of code 
> associated with these classes.
> Immutables works via annotation processor which means that it is should be 
> relatively seamless to build systems and IDEs.
> The switch would also make it easier to work with these objects types in the 
> context of aot compilation tools like GraalVM.
