Timo Walther commented on FLINK-4624: ------------------------------------- {{VertexGroupItem<K, VV>}} and {{VertexGroupItem}} are compatible. They both have the same class. Just the generics cause problems as Java classes have no generics (because of legacy reasons). Just do a hard cast. If you look into the type extractor, you will see that we had to do this several times. {code} @SuppressWarnings({"rawtype", "unchecked"}) TypeInformation<VertexGroupItem<K, VV>> t = (TypeInformation<VertexGroupItem<K, VV>>) new TupleTypeInfo(VertexGroupItem.class, keyType, keyType, eitherType, BasicTypeInfo.LONG_TYPE_INFO); {code} > Gelly's summarization algorithm cannot deal with null vertex group values > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-4624 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4624 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Gelly > Reporter: Till Rohrmann > Assignee: Martin Junghanns > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > > Gelly's {{Summarization}} algorithm cannot handle null values in the > `VertexGroupItem.f2`. This behaviour is hidden by using Strings as a vertex > value in the {{SummarizationITCase}}, because the {{StringSerializer}} can > handle null values. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
