Timo Walther created FLINK-14903: ------------------------------------ Summary: Relax structured types constraints Key: FLINK-14903 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-14903 Project: Flink Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Table SQL / API Reporter: Timo Walther Assignee: Timo Walther
As mentioned in FLIP-65: In order to allow type extraction of structured types that are not registered in a catalog, we need to relax the structured type concept to "inline or anonymous structured types" that are not identified by an object identifier in a catalog but the fully qualified implementation class. In order to support case classes and immutable types, we relax the constraint of enforcing a default constructor by the alternative of having a constructor that fully assigns all fields (same parameter names and types). Because we are already using code generation, the implementation of creating instances even without a default constructor is relatively easy. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
