There > are two types of issue that are both related to the new type inference rules: > * Call to TypeSerializer.copy method in TupleSerializer.java:112 now resolves > to a different overload than before causing a compilation error: [ERROR] > /Users/andrey.melentyev/Dev/github.com/apache/flink/flink-core/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/api/java/typeutils/runtime/TupleSerializer.java:[112,63] > incompatible types: void cannot be converted to java.lang.Object > * A number of unit tests using assertEquals fail to compile: > [ERROR] > /Users/andrey.melentyev/Dev/github.com/apache/flink/flink-java/src/test/java/org/apache/flink/api/common/operators/CollectionExecutionAccumulatorsTest.java:[50,25] > reference to assertEquals is ambiguous > [ERROR] both method assertEquals(long,long) in org.junit.Assert and method > assertEquals(java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object) in org.junit.Assert match > In both of the above scenarios explicitly casting one of the arguments helps > the compiler to resolve overloaded method call correctly. > It is possible to maintain Flink's code base in a state when it can be built > by both 1.7 and 1.8. For this purpose we need minor code fixes and an > automated build in Travis to keep the new good state. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
