-------------------------------------
Summary: Allow default methods and static methods to be added to
public interfaces
Key: FLINK-13647
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13647
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build System
Affects Versions: 1.9.0, 1.10.0
Reporter: Till Rohrmann
Fix For: 1.10.0
Since Java 8, it is possible to extend interfaces by adding default methods and
static methods. Flink's current japicmp plugin won't allow this and complains
with a {{METHOD_ADDED_TO_INTERFACE}}.
I think we should allow this in order to extend existing public interfaces.
There is also a japicmp issue which addresses this problem:
