Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-6444: ------------------------------------- Cool, thanks for picking this up. Would be interested to hear what approach you want to take. Spontaneously, I could think of two ways to approach that - See if there is a way to define a "Spotbugs" rule - Use the Reflections library to check and enforce that. We use it in a similar way to make sure that no string construction happens without explicit charset. See for example here: https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/9bd491e05120915cbde36d4452e3982fe5d0975f/flink-tests/src/test/java/org/apache/flink/test/manual/CheckForbiddenMethodsUsage.java > Add a check that '@VisibleForTesting' methods are only used in tests > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-6444 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6444 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build System > Reporter: Stephan Ewen > Assignee: Hai Zhou_UTC+8 > > Some methods are annotated with {{@VisibleForTesting}}. These methods should > only be called from tests. > This is currently not enforced / checked during the build. We should add such > a check. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
