Ufuk Celebi created FLINK-1506: ---------------------------------- Summary: Add buffer/event wrapper for runtime results Key: FLINK-1506 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1506 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Distributed Runtime Affects Versions: master Reporter: Ufuk Celebi Priority: Minor
There is no separation between buffer or events and their metadata when adding them to an intermediate result at runtime. This was not the case up until release-0.8 and has been introduced by me with intermediate results. I think this was a mistake and we should seperate this again using a similar wrapper as before (e.g. an Envelope). Some of the problems of the current solution include that events are always serialized when adding them to an intermediate result and buffers are tagged to include whether they serialize a buffer or event. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
