Github user prashanth-vasudev commented on a diff in the pull request: https://github.com/apache/incubator-trafodion/pull/815#discussion_r86498129 --- Diff: core/sql/executor/ex_sort.h --- @@ -356,4 +363,119 @@ class ExSortFromTopPrivateState : public ex_tcb_private_state ~ExSortFromTopPrivateState(); // destructor }; +class ExSortBufferPool : public NABasicObject --- End diff -- Creating a abstract class here was considered as the first option. However, making this change would have ripple effect all over the code since sql_buffer_pool is packed and unpacked when hopping many operators. If a major change is made to sql buffer management in future, it would be nice to consider having a abstract class. For now, to keep the change concise, this approach was taken.
