@wanghangyu817 I am trying to understand why the HDFSEventSink would care about the topic used by the KafkaChannel. There is no guarantee that the Kafka channel was even used - they might have used the file channel. All a channel is is a place to store the events when flume receives them until someone consumes them, so in that aspect they are just an internal component that could conceivably be changed at any time. So what is the value of the HDFSEventSink knowing information about the topic, etc that was used to temporarily store the event? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
