I'm receiving the following exception when trying to use a KafkaSource from the new DataSource API.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.flink.connector.kafka.source.reader.deserializer.ValueDeserializerWrapper.getProducedType(ValueDeserializerWrapper.java:79) at org.apache.flink.connector.kafka.source.KafkaSource.getProducedType(KafkaSource.java:171) at org.apache.flink.streaming.api.environment.StreamExecutionEnvironment.getTypeInfo(StreamExecutionEnvironment.java:2282) at org.apache.flink.streaming.api.environment.StreamExecutionEnvironment.fromSource(StreamExecutionEnvironment.java:1744) at org.apache.flink.streaming.api.environment.StreamExecutionEnvironment.fromSource(StreamExecutionEnvironment.java:1715) Here is my code (kotlin) val kafkaSource = buildKafkaSource(params) val datastream = env.fromSource(kafkaSource, WatermarkStrategy.noWatermarks(), "kafka") private fun buildKafkaSource(params: ParameterTool): KafkaSource<String> { val builder = KafkaSource.builder<String>() .setBootstrapServers(params.get("bootstrapServers")) .setGroupId(params.get("groupId")) .setStartingOffsets(OffsetsInitializer.earliest()) .setTopics("topic") .setDeserializer(KafkaRecordDeserializer.valueOnly(StringDeserializer::class.java)) if (params.getBoolean("boundedSource", false)) { builder.setBounded(OffsetsInitializer.latest()) } return builder.build() } I'm setting the deserializer using the ValueDeserializerWrapper as described in the KafkaSourceBuilder javadoc example https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/api/java/org/apache/flink/connector/kafka/source/KafkaSourceBuilder.html Looking at the code for the ValueDeserializerWrapper, it appears that the deserializer isn't actually set until the deserialize method is called, but getProducedType is actually called first resulting in the NullPointerException. What am I missing?
