Dong Li edited comment on KYLIN-2068 at 10/10/16 3:07 PM: ---------------------------------------------------------- Hi Yiming, I saw a new field(comment) in ColumnDesc. This may cause compatible issue on metadata from old versions. The old metadata (in json) may not be deserialized due to field missing, and user has to upgrade metadata for this field. Maybe you can add following annotation to the field, to mark the field as optional. @JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL) You can find a reference in class org.apache.kylin.cube.model.RowKeyColDesc Thanks, Dong was (Author: lidong_sjtu): Hi Yiming, I saw a new field(comment) in ColumnDesc.
