-------------------------------------
Hi, [~StephanEwen] The only problematic seems I can get like the following.
Other than that, I think all good.
{code:java}
//inner class
System.out.println(HashMap.SimpleEntry.class.getName());
System.out.println(HashMap.SimpleEntry.class.getCanonicalName());
{code}
Will print as follows
{code:java}
java.util.AbstractMap$SimpleEntry // correct way
java.util.AbstractMap.SimpleEntry // wrong way
{code}
> In Kafka Consumers, replace 'getCanonicalName()' with 'getClassName()'

> Key: FLINK-8824
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8824
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Kafka Connector
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: mingleizhang
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.5.0
>
>
> The connector uses {{getCanonicalName()}} in all places, gather than
> {{getClassName()}}.
> {{getCanonicalName()}}'s intention is to normalize class names for arrays,
> etc, but is problematic when instantiating classes from class names.
