David Hodeffi commented on FLINK-13414: --------------------------------------- I just read this thread and it is very sad. Scala 2.13 was released on 2019 , we are on 2021. Scala 2.13 in couple time will be replaced with dotty (Scala 3.0) and Flink still on Scala 2.12. keeping the situation like this create huge overhead for Scala users. cause their application already running on 2.13 and they need to downgrade components to 2.12 just because of flink. or create cross compile 'common projects' with 2.13 and 2.12 just because flink use scala 2.12. And I didn't even started to talk how much time AWS or any other cloud provider will upgrade flink to the new version of scala 2.13, which is at least couple months/years. (i.e. latest emr version use flink 1.12.1) > Add support for Scala 2.13 > -------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-13414 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13414 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: API / Scala > Reporter: Chaoran Yu > Priority: Major > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
