Checkpoint: Hostile-Reviewer Session

โญโญโญ advancedโณ 20 min read๐Ÿ“ Lesson 124 of 180

Build a Session that survives constructor-time, accessor-time, and external mutation attacks.

Checkpoint: the object model under pressure

A Session object must survive three hostile reviewers: one mutates the list it passed to the constructor, one mutates what your accessor returns, and one constructs the object from a superclass constructor that calls an overridable describe() method.

Build the class that survives all three โ€” initialization-safe, alias-proof, and immutable-friendly.
