Fabian Hueske created FLINK-1665: ------------------------------------ Summary: Add optional annotations for POJOs to specify the order of fields Key: FLINK-1665 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1665 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: JobManager Affects Versions: 0.8.0, 0.9 Reporter: Fabian Hueske
The order of fields within a POJO is not well defined. We could provide an optional annotation such as {{@Position(int)}} to enable the definition of field orders. The order of fields is relevant when mapping data to POJOs such as when generating POJOs from CSV input, converting POJOs to tuples (for example for the expression API), or when sorting POJOs (see FLINK-1664). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
