Github user mengxr commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/1215#issuecomment-48555878 @dbtsai As we discussed offline, this is an incompatible change, and it doesn't seem to be necessary. You can throw an exception in your implementation if you don't want to implement the old API. Do you mind closing this and the associated JIRA?
