Marko A. Rodriguez commented on TINKERPOP-1669: ----------------------------------------------- "unfinalizing" is not a problem. However, can you please tell me your use case (why do you want {{EdgeVertexStep}} to be customized?). (for my own interest as I think I can tell you more which can help you). > EdgeVertexStep should be designed for extension > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: TINKERPOP-1669 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1669 > Project: TinkerPop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: process, structure > Affects Versions: 3.2.4 > Reporter: Bryn Cooke > > GraphStep, VertexStep and PropertiesStep are all not final, so I was > surprised to find that I couldn't extend EdgeVertexStep. In the end I had to > duplicate the entire class.... > If there are concerns about simply making this class non-final then it could > be designed for extension by making most of the methods final (except > toString), but the leaving the class non-final. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
