Hello Aljoscha ,
Many thanks for taking time to explain the behaviour of Evictor. The
essence of my original post - about how the guide explains an Evictor - was

This is clear to me now. However, my point was about the way it is

Hi Nirmalya,
it is correct that the evictor is called BEFORE the window function is
applied because this is required to support certain types of sliding
windows.
If you want to remove all elements from the window after the window
function was applied, you need a trigger that purges the window. The
