This is useful if the user has control over the type for which > he wants to generate the {{TypeInformation}}. > However, annotating a type is not always possible if the type comes from an > external library. In this case, it would be good to be able to directly > register a {{TypeInfoFactory}} without having to annotate the type. > The {{TypeExtractor#registerFactory}} already has such a method. However, it > is declared private. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
