Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-403:
-------------------------------------
Hadoop Writables are supported by the Java API.
[~aljoscha] Does the Scala API also support them?
If yes, we can close this issue.
> Support for Hadoop Types in Java/Scala
> --------------------------------------

> Key: FLINK-403
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-403
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: GitHub Import
> Labels: github-import
> Fix For: pre-apache
>
>
> It would be very valueable if users could use plain Hadoop objects as types
> in the Java and Scala API.
> Since they are serializable/deserializable by a very similar mechanism as the
> Stratosphere Value types, this should be easy to add.
> The following is necessary:
> - Add setField(...) and getField(...) methods to the Record for subclasses
> if Hadoop's Writable. That should do it for the Java API.
> - The Scala API needs an additional check in the type generator that
> subclasses of Writables are also accepted and not only subclasses of Value.
