Annotation Type FunctionAnnotation.ConstantFieldsExcept

@Target(value=TYPE)
 @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
public static @interface FunctionAnnotation.ConstantFieldsExcept

Specifies the fields of an input record that are changed in the output of a stub with a single input ( MapFunction, ReduceFunction). All other fields are assumed to be constant. A field is considered to be constant if its value is not changed and copied to the same position of output record. It is very important to follow a conservative strategy when specifying constant fields. Only fields that are always constant (regardless of value, stub call, etc.) to the output may be inserted! Otherwise, the correct execution of a program can not be guaranteed. So if in doubt, do not add a field to this set. This annotation is mutually exclusive with the FunctionAnnotation.ConstantFields annotation. If this annotation and the FunctionAnnotation.ConstantFields annotation is not set, it is assumed that no field is constant.
