Github user zentol commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2109 1. Technically the GlobFilePathFilter is not redundant, since it fulfills exactly the requirements of the issue; be able to filter files by specifying a regular expression. It also offers functionality that is very basic, so i think we should include it. 2. The shouldIgnore method does stuff with locks. Is it safe to just remove that? (since the FileInputFormat doesn't do that.) 3. which methods specifically?
