[jira] [Updated] (FLINK-13692) Make CompletedCheckpointStore backwards compatible

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-13692?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Till Rohrmann updated FLINK-13692:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
With FLINK-11159 we changed the signature of {{CompletedCheckpointStore#getLatestCheckpoint}} from {{getLatestCheckpoint()}} to {{getLatestCheckpoint(boolean)}}. This is an API breaking change which causes users of this interface to adapt their implementation and recompile it. Since {{CompletedCheckpointStore}} is no public API, this change is technically ok, but not so nice. 

If we decide to provide backwards compatibility, then we should still keep {{getLatestCheckpoint()}} and add a deprecation annotation to it. At least, we should update the JavaDocs of the {{CompletedCheckpointStore#getLatestCheckpoint}} method to reflect what the passed parameter states.
