Gyula Fora commented on FLINK-4948: ----------------------------------- I think in general this would be very nice but what about tools that might want to alter the checkpoints intentionally for some reasons. Maybe cleaning/transforming the state. So I think we should aim for some flexible checking logic here. > Consider using checksums or similar to detect bad checkpoints > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-4948 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4948 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: DataStream API > Reporter: Jamie Grier > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > > We should consider proactively checking to verify that checkpoints are valid > when reading (and maybe writing).
