-------------------------------------------
Summary: Resolve naming collisions for static imports in the
Gremlin language
Key: TINKERPOP-1580
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1580
Project: TinkerPop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: process
Affects Versions: 3.2.3
Reporter: stephen mallette
This may not be a breaking change - it can likely be done with deprecation
along the 3.2.x line. The problem is that static imports collide in the
{{GremlinScriptEngine}} and therefore there are not only situations where
certain imports will be "hidden" but it can cause the system behave in
non-deterministic fashion depending on the {{ScriptEngine}}. For example,
groovy's compiler seems to only be able to detect the difference between
{{Column.values}} and {{__.values()}} if wildcards are used. If they are
imported directly then one of the other will fail.
Here's a list of the troublemaker names that collide across different
methods/enums: or,and,id,values,key,local,value,sum,min,max.
