#212 fixes the original build failure. Now I see the second recovery test
fail after first passes and that can be reproduced locally. I think we can
close this and take up the remaining unit test issue as separately.
> Iterative processing support
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: APEXCORE-60
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXCORE-60
> Project: Apache Apex Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: David Yan
> Assignee: David Yan
> Labels: roadmap
> Fix For: 3.3.0
>
>
> We would like to support iterative processing by introducing cycles in the
> graph (known as DAG now, but no longer if we support iterative processing).
> Initial idea is as follow:
> {noformat}
> |----|
> v |
> A -> B -> C -> D
> ^ |
> |---------|
> {noformat}
> C has two separate backward streams to A and B. The input ports of A and B
> that C connects to will have a special attribute on how many window IDs ahead
> the incoming windows should be treated as, and A and B will be responsible
> for the initial data for such input ports.
> Another idea is to have C advance the window ID on its output ports and have
> C generate the initial data on its output ports to A and B.
