Summary: Deprecate TableEnvironment#connect API
Key: FLINK-18416
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18416
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Jark Wu
Assignee: Jark Wu
Fix For: 1.11.0
In the past releases, the community focused on the new SQL DDL features and the
{{TableEnvironment#connect}} API is not maintained for a long time. We have
seen many (bug) issues around this APIs.
The {{TableEnvironment#connect()}} API might receive some refactoring in the
next release. So we should deprecate the connect API in 1.11 and recommend
users to use {{executeSql(ddl)}} instead. Thus, we can remove/refactor the
existing {{connect()}} API in the next release even though it is API breaking.
