[OpenLayers-Dev] Shouldn't getCenter return a clone?

[Joao Duarte]

Hi,

 

While I was developing my application, I got a strange behavior while using
map.getCenter() and map.getExtent().

 

I was calling map.getCenter() and modifying the value I got in return. Then
the map.getExtent() returned a strange bounding box.

 

After looking at the getCenter method of OpenLayers.Map, I found that what’s
being returned is this.center directly, instead of a clone.

 

Shouldn’t getCenter return a clone to prevent modifications on the return
value from the user, like for example getSize?

 

Best regards,

 

João Duarte
