@ptgoetz,
I agree that it was rather fast (7 mins), but I thought with the bylaws
allowing for a retroactive -1 to revert the change, that it was not that big of
a deal.
> Set Serialization Id for Config
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: STORM-750
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-750
> Project: Apache Storm
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
> Assignee: Robert Joseph Evans
> Labels: newbie
> Fix For: 0.11.0
>
>
> We have had several customers write bolts or spouts that don't do the right
> thing and end up caching the Config somewhere in the bolt or spout instance.
> Sometimes in odd ways through anonymous inner classes that should have been
> static but were not and debugging them because of the bad java serialization
> errors is really hard.
> Instead of beating on them to clean up these references every time we upgrade
> a cluster, or force them to keep their client perfectly in sync with the
> server, I propose that we set the serialization id for Config. Config stores
> no state except in the parent class so it really should not matter if we add
> more methods to it.
