> Object reuse for Either type
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-6268
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6268
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Greg Hogan
> Assignee: Greg Hogan
> Priority: Minor
>
> While reviewing test coverage for FLINK-4705 I have come across that
> {{Either}} only implements partial object reuse (when from and to are both
> {{Right}}). We can implement full object reuse if {{Left}} stores a reference
> to a {{Right}} and {{Right}} to a {{Left}}. These references will be
> {{private}} and will remain {{null}} until set by {{EitherSerializer}} when
> copying or deserializing with object reuse.
