Steve Niemitz commented on BEAM-1589:
-------------------------------------
has there been any progress on implementing this other than just adding the
annotation?
Was the intention for this that it would be invoked (for example in dataflow)
in SimpleParDoFn.processSystemTimer right before clearing all the state?
> Add OnWindowExpiration method to Stateful DoFn

> This allows the user to do some work before the state's garbage collection.
> It seems kind of annoying, but on the other hand forgetting to set a final
> timer to flush state is probably data loss most of the time.
> FlinkRunner does this work very simply, but other runners, such as
> DirectRunner, need to traverse all the states to do this, and maybe it's a
> little hard.
