Github user uce commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2829 Good additions with the Javadocs. All changes looks good to me. --- While looking over the Serializer interface I noticed that `clear` and `clearCurrentBuffer` are dangerously similar. But looking at the usage it looks like it is very important that we don't accidentally call `clear` while copying from serializer to target buffers. This should be fixed altogether, but in the mean time it would be good to add a big note to the newly added serializer comments. What do you think?
