### Other notable changes

## Decision

### Types of properties that should not use lazy types

The guidelines below do not apply to all properties. There are cases where the lazy types should not be used:

#### Non-calculated values

These are inappropriate uses of lazy types:

```groovy
class Example {
    Property<String> getSomeProperty()

    }

    /**
     * Creates a Type-2 message with the specified parameters.
     *
     * @param tc
     *            context to use
     * @param flags
     *            The flags to apply to this message.
     * @param challenge
     *            The challenge from the domain controller/server.
     * @param target
     *            The authentication target.
