CompilerHints (Flink : Core 1.18.1-cp1 API)

```
@Internal
public class CompilerHints
extends Object
```
A class encapsulating compiler hints describing the behavior of the user function. If set, the optimizer will use them to estimate the sizes of the intermediate results. Note that these values are optional hints, the optimizer will always generate a valid plan without them as well. The hints may help, however, to improve the plan choice.
