Github user StephanEwen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2233 Because this breaks the public API, it would be good to do the following: Add a new method to the `StreamExecutionEnvironment`, rather than changing the old method. Tag that new method as `@PublicEvolving`. Take the old method, delegate to the new method, and mark it as `@Deprecated`. Also add a proper deprecation comment.
