Summary: Narrow down interface for compatibility hook method in VersionedIOReadableWritable Key: FLINK-6566 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6566 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Core, Type Serialization System Reporter: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai The {{VersionedIOReadableWritable}} provides a {{isCompatibleVersion}} method that allows users to override to resolve older versions. This method allows too much space for the user to mess up the implementation, and is much more relevant now because we have an user-facing class {{TypeSerializerConfigSnapshot}} which extends {{VersionedIOReadableWritable}}. Instead of a {{isCompatibleVersion}} method, it should only expose a narrower {{int[] getCompatibleVersions}} that the internal version check uses. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
