Bertrand Dechoux commented on SPARK-9720: ----------------------------------------- I could take care of it. Here is the list (only in spark.ml) : * DecisionTreeClassificationModel * DecisionTreeRegressionModel * GBTClassificationModel * GBTRegressionModel * NaiveBayesModel * RFormula * RFormulaModel * RandomForestClassificationModel * RandomForestRegressionModel The question is do we want to enforce that "identifiable types should be identifiable by their toString". It does make sense. The following question is can we introduce potential API breaking change in the API in order to do it? If the answer is yes, the easy way would be to set Identifiable.toString as final and compose it with an overridable empty suffix private[spark] trait Identifiable { /** * An immutable unique ID for the object and its derivatives. */ val uid: String def toStringSuffix: String = "" override final def toString: String = uid + toStringSuffix } Is there a committer that could validate this proposal? > spark.ml Identifiable types should have UID in toString methods > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-9720 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9720 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: ML > Reporter: Joseph K.
