> The following code currently causes problems
> {code}
> public class MyFunction extends RichMapFunction<A, B>  {
>     private final ValueStateDescriptor<MyType> descr = new 
> ValueStateDescriptor<>("state name", MyType.class);
>     private ValueState<MyType> state;
>     @Override
>     public void open() {
>         state = getRuntimeContext().getValueState(descr);
>     }
> }
> {code}
> The problem is that the state descriptor drops the type information and 
> creates a serializer before serialization as part of shipping the function in 
> the cluster. To do that, it initializes the serializer with an empty 
> execution config, making serialization inconsistent.
> This is mainly an artifact from the days when dropping the type information 
> before shipping was necessary, because the type info was not serializable. It 
> now is, and we can fix that bug.
