Anton Mushin commented on FLINK-4330: ------------------------------------- Hi everyone. Components name in this issue confuse me. I don't see min()/minBy()/max()/maxBy()/sum() methods in DataStream class. bq. I think we should deprecate and remove them by the time we have a suitable replacement via the Table API. [~StephanEwen], do exist issue about it? If no. Is it should be sub-tasks? > Consider removing min()/minBy()/max()/maxBy()/sum() utility methods from the > DataStream API > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-4330 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4330 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: DataStream API > Reporter: Robert Metzger > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > > I think we should consider removing the min()/minBy()/max()/maxBy()/sum() > utility methods from the DataStream API. They make the maintenance of the > code unnecessary complicated, and don't add enough value for the users (who > can not access the window metadata). > If we are keeping the methods, we should consolidate the min/minBy methods: > the difference is subtle, and minBy can subsume the min method. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
