   > @phrocker is the main rationale to avoid needing this build and the 
associated tooling in cpp land? I see this is currently in a profile and I 
think that is okay for the common case, but do you think this would be a 
standard inclusion in our release process for NiFi such that the generated 
artifacts are readily available?
   
   @apiri The primary rationale is  that we will eventually be able to create 
regression tests in this or a related package to avoid making releases that 
could break this linkage. Secondarily, the hope is that this feature appears 
more official by being a release artifact of Apache NiFi proper ( this feeds 
back into the first point ). 
   
   The target could certainly live in C++, referencing the remote parent, 
without any issue whatsoever, but these two primary points were what I wanted 
to discuss. 
   
   I would anticipate this breaking often without ownership in NiFi, and I know 
some profiles exist for various entities, so precedent seemed to exist in that 
aspect. Certainly open to discussion where we put this. My preference due to 
the risk to MiNiFi C++, and perceived less risk to NiFi is that if we don't put 
this here we don't put this in MINiFi C++ and instead provide it as 
documentation only -- or alternatively within a separate project altogether 
that does not tie this functionality to Apache NiFi MiNiFi C++.
