Chesnay Schepler commented on FLINK-18546:
------------------------------------------
How would this work in terms of backwards compatibility?
> Upgrade to Kafka Schema Registry Client 5.5.0
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-18546
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18546
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
> Affects Versions: 1.11.0
> Reporter: Lucas Heimberg
> Priority: Major
> Labels: Avro, avro
>
> As of version 1.11, Flink (i.e., flink-avro-confluent-registry) still uses
> kafka-schema-registry-client in version 4.1.0.
> From version 5.5.0 on, the Kafka schema registry client supports resolving of
> schema references (see
> [https://docs.confluent.io/current/schema-registry/serdes-develop/index.html#referenced-schemas]),
> i.e., schemas that are defined using schemas from other subjects.
> Therefore it would be great if Flink could make use of
> kafka-schema-registry-client in version 5.5.0 or higher in future releases.
