Guozhang Wang commented on KAFKA-4468:
--------------------------------------
[~mjsax] Today the {{WindowStore}} does not allow putting a window with
customized size: the window specs need to be provided at the construction of
the window store by itself, since we have not seen common usage for such API:
the only common request we have seen is in sessionized window whose size may
vary depending on the incoming record, that has been supported with the
{{SessionStore}}. [~evis] any specific use cases for your proposal of allowing
different window size within a single window store?
> Correctly calculate the window end timestamp after read from state stores

> When storing the WindowedStore on the persistent KV store, we only use the
> start timestamp of the window as part of the combo-key as (start-timestamp,
> key). The reason that we do not add the end-timestamp as well is that we can
> always calculate it from the start timestamp + window_length, and hence we
> can save 8 bytes per key on the persistent KV store.
> However, after read it (via {{WindowedDeserializer}}) we do not set its end
> timestamp correctly but just read it as an {{UnlimitedWindow}}. We should fix
> this by calculating its end timestamp as mentioned above.
