Aldrin Piri commented on NIFI-810: ---------------------------------- The counter for this seems like it should be true as well. Something to the effect of @IgnoresInput or similar concept seems like it would be applicable and prevent processors from running that are taking input and do not use it. > Create Annotation that indicates that a Processor cannot be scheduled to run > without an incoming connection > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-810 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-810 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Extensions > Reporter: Mark Payne > > Currently, if a Processor has no incoming connections but is started, it will > continually without ever accomplishing anything. We should have an > annotation, perhaps @RequiresInput, that indicates that the Processor should > not be scheduled to run unless it has an incoming connection. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
