Till Rohrmann created FLINK-2593: ------------------------------------ Summary: Revisit Flink's shading policy Key: FLINK-2593 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2593 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Till Rohrmann Priority: Minor
At the moment Flink does not follow a consistent shading policy which dictates which dependencies should be shaded away and which to keep. This becomes especially important for utility libraries which are likely to be used by the users as well. By not shading these dependencies, the user is constrained to use exactly the same version in his code. This might cause problems for the user. Some of the dependencies which Flink should probably shade away are {{Akka}}, {{Protobuf}} and {{Curator}}, for example. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
