Kostas Kloudas created FLINK-6248: ------------------------------------- Summary: Make the optional() available to all offered patterns. Key: FLINK-6248 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6248 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: CEP Affects Versions: 1.3.0 Reporter: Kostas Kloudas Fix For: 1.3.0
Currently the {{optional()}} quantifier is available as a separate pattern. This issue proposes to make it available as a flag to all patterns. This implies that: 1) a singleton pattern with {{optional=true}} will become the current {{OPTIONAL}}, 2) a {{oneToMany}} will become {{zeroToMany}}, 3) the {{zeroToMany}} will not exist as a direct option in the {{Pattern}} class, and 4) the {{times()}} will require some changes in the {{NFACompiler}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
