Re: NIFI-687: CoreAttributes vs Standard Attributes
Andre
These [1] and [2] describe the attributes which you could think of as 'public'
[1] http://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/user-guide.html#terminology
[2] http://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/developer-guide.html#flowfile
What was the JIRA that got you thinking about this? Do you think we
need to change it or make something more clear?
Thanks
Joe

Re: NIFI-687: CoreAttributes vs Standard Attributes

ahh - the JIRA was in the subject :-)
I wonder if the docs have been updated since the JIRA was filed
because the developer guide docs I linked to above seems to be what
was asked about.
Thanks
