Alex McCullough commented on APEXCORE-528: ------------------------------------------ Hey Deepak, I am working on this. I did want to clarify the exact rules that should be in place though for the output ports. I see in the comments it states: // multiple ports w/o annotation, one of them must be connected Is this truly the rule? My proposal would be for output ports, there is never a requirement to connect them unless the annotation explicitly marks it as optional = false. Thanks, Alex > Output Ports Not Optional by Default During Validation > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: APEXCORE-528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-528 > Project: Apache Apex Core > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.4.0 > Reporter: Alex McCullough > Assignee: Alex McCullough > Priority: Minor > > The 'optional' OutputPortFieldAnnotation states that the default value is > true. When you build a DAG with multiple output ports the validator throws an > error telling you at least one must be connected. To fix, you must explicitly > add the annotation to all output ports and set the value to True, which is > supposed to already be the default. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
