             Summary: Add tooling to ensure interface stability
                 Key: FLINK-3129
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3129
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Build System
            Reporter: Robert Metzger
            Assignee: Robert Metzger


I would like to use this maven plugin: https://github.com/siom79/japicmp to automatically ensure interface stability across minor releases.

Ideally we have the plugin in place after Flink 1.0 is out, so that maven builds break if a breaking change has been made.

The plugin already supports downloading a reference release, checking the build and breaking it.
Not yet supported are class/method inclusions based on annotations, but I've opened a pull request for adding it.
There are also issues with the resolution of the dependency with the annotations, but I'm working on resolving those issues.
