ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-1525: --------------------------------------- Github user rmetzger commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/664#issuecomment-101303549 Yes. But my PR will provide two standard implementations (ParameterTool, Configuration), so only if users want more features they need to implement the config. Users have to cast it in their function, yes. @hsaputra: I renamed the class to `ParameterTool`. ---------------------------------- I think the pull request is in a mergeable state now. I didn't change the examples yet. Thats going to be a big change which I would like to do separately, once this is merged.
