Aljoscha Krettek commented on FLINK-3956: ----------------------------------------- The title very exactly specified what we want to accomplish, I generalized it a bit to make it shorter. :-) > Make FileInputFormats independent from Configuration > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3956 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3956 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Streaming > Reporter: Kostas Kloudas > Assignee: Kostas Kloudas > > Currently many input file input formats rely on a user specified > Configuration object for their correct configuration. As an example, the > DelimitedInputFormat can take its delimiter character from this object. > This is happening for legacy reasons, and does not work in the streaming > codebase. In streaming, the user-specified configuration object is > over-written at the TaskManagers by a new Configuration object. > This issue aims at solving this by refactoring current file input formats to > be > able to set their parameters through setters. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
