Jacques Nadeau commented on CALCITE-4942:
-----------------------------------------

Glad you're picking this up. Will be interested how you propose doing this 
without having breaking changes (and refactoring reflection reliance on 
existing getDef() functionality)

> To define a Rel metadata type you need to create 2 class, 2 methods and a 
> static variable.  However, current implementation of RelMetadata back by 
> Janino only require the Handler class a single method signature.  The current 
> metadata handler interface also has a generic that provides no type safety 
> through out code. 
> Currently to define a rel metadata type:
> {code:java}
> public class MyMetadata extends Metadata {
>   MetadataDef DEF = ...
>  
>  VALUE myMethod1();
>   class Handler extends RelHandler<MyMetadata> {
>     VALUE myMethod2(RelNode, MetadataQuery)
>   }
> }
> {code}
> What is actually needed to define a rel metadata type:
> {code:java}
> class MyMetadataHandler extends RelHandler {
>   VALUE myMethod(RelNode, MetadataQuery)
> }
> {code}
