             Summary: Remove Guava's "Optional" from public API
                 Key: SPARK-4819
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4819
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
            Reporter: Marcelo Vanzin


Filing this mostly so this isn't forgotten. Spark currently exposes Guava types 
in its public API (the {{Optional}} class is used in the Java bindings). This 
makes it hard to properly hide Guava from user applications, and makes mixing 
different Guava versions with Spark a little sketchy (even if things should 
work, since those classes are pretty simple in general).

Since this changes the public API, it has to be done in a release that allows 
such breakages. But it would be nice to at least have a transition plan for 
deprecating the affected APIs.
