-----------------------------------------
Thanks Mike. I have filed FLUME-1237 to track the refactoring Arvind suggested
above.
> Sink gets initialized even when not active

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1230
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Arvind Prabhakar
> Assignee: Hari Shreedharan
> Fix For: v1.2.0

> Flume configuration requires that components that are not declared in the
> active lists (agent.sources, agent.sinks, agent.channels, and
> agent.sinkgroups) be disabled by default. However, in some cases, sinks that
> are not in the active list will get initialized and started.
> Following configuration can reproduce this scenario:
> {noformat}
> agent.sources = s
> agent.channels = c
> #agent.sinks = k1 k2
> agent.sources.s.type = netcat
> agent.sources.s.port = 12121
> agent.sources.s.bind = localhost
> agent.sources.s.channels = c
> agent.channels.c.type = memory
> agent.sinks.k1.type = logger
> agent.sinks.k1.channel = c
> agent.sinks.k2.type = null
> agent.sinks.k2.channel = c
> {noformat}
