Xintong Song commented on FLINK-32820:
--------------------------------------
[~Zhanghao Chen], thanks for reporting this. I wasn't aware that ParameterTool
is mentioned in documentation.
ParameterTool is currently in the flink-java module, which is likely removed
together with DataSet API in future. That's why we tried to deprecate it. And
because many DataStream examples and end-to-ends tests are still depending on
it, we introduced the other ParameterTool in flink-exmaples-streaming, in a
different package to avoid conflicts.
If should not be removed, it needs to be moved to another module (maybe
flink-streaming-java / flink-core), probably in the same package so users need
not to re-import it as long as the module is included as dependency. However,
moving it to another module may introduce breaking changes to DataSet users,
thus should only happen in the major version bump.
So I guess for now reverting the ParameterTool related changes from FLINK-32558
should be good enough.
