Eugene Kirpichov commented on BEAM-8942:
----------------------------------------
Beam Java has a few interfaces for functions - SerializableFunction (doesn't
throw, takes lambdas), ProcessFunction (throws, takes lambdas),
InferableFunction (throws, doesn't take lambdas).
Just having 3 interfaces is already confusing - it seems like
SerializableFunction should be deleted or deprecated.
However, we should make it so that various PTransforms taking lambdas, e.g.
Map/FlatMapElements.via(), FileIO.write().by() etc. can all take throwing
lambdas. That might be by removing the SerializableFunction overloads or by
adding new methods or any other means.
> Improve support for lambdas that throw checked exceptions in various
> transforms
