Till Rohrmann created FLINK-5799: ------------------------------------ Summary: Let RpcService.scheduleRunnable return ScheduledFuture Key: FLINK-5799 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5799 Project: Flink Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Distributed Coordination Affects Versions: 1.3.0 Reporter: Till Rohrmann Assignee: Till Rohrmann Priority: Minor Fix For: 1.3.0
Currently, the method {{RpcService.scheduleRunnable}} does not return a control instance for the scheduled runnable. I think it would be good to return a {{ScheduledFuture}} with which one can cancel the scheduled runnable after it has been scheduled, e.g. a timeout registration which became obsolete. This API is also more in line with the {{ScheduledExecutorService}} where one also receives a {{ScheduledFuture}} after scheduling a runnable. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
