If you are talking about AffinityContextFunction.currentTopologyVersion method then for now this method is nowhere uses. But it make sense to return non null value in order to avoid problems in the future. 2) the consequences of returning null from > AffinityFunctionContext.previousAssignment and > AffinityFunctionContext.discoveryEvent methods (because I can't provide any > meaningful implementation for them) are not clear. > Both methods declared as @Nullable, so affinity function developer should correctly handle this cases. In Ignite only FairAffinityFunction uses these methods. FairAffinityFunction tries to obtain left node Id from event of EventType.EVT_NODE_LEFT or EventType.EVT_NODE_FAILED type. It needs to exclude this node assignment from previous assignments. So if your cluster group lost node you can return EVT_NODE_LEFT discovery event with Id of lost node from discoveryEvent method and assignments for previous cluster group state from previousAssignment method. RendezvousAffinityFunction uses only currentTopologySnapshot() and backups() methods of AffinityFunctionContext interface.
