Summary: Python Kafka connector runs into strange NullPointerException Key: FLINK-32327 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-32327 Project: Flink Issue Type: Sub-task Components: API / Python Reporter: Chesnay Schepler The following error occurs when running the python kafka tests: (this uses a slightly modified version of the code, but the error also happens without it) {code:python} def set_record_serializer(self, record_serializer: 'KafkaRecordSerializationSchema') \ -> 'KafkaSinkBuilder': """ Sets the :class:`KafkaRecordSerializationSchema` that transforms incoming records to kafka producer records. :param record_serializer: The :class:`KafkaRecordSerializationSchema`. """ # NOTE: If topic selector is a generated first-column selector, do extra preprocessing j_topic_selector = get_field_value(record_serializer._j_serialization_schema, 'topicSelector') caching_name_suffix = 'KafkaRecordSerializationSchemaBuilder.CachingTopicSelector' if j_topic_selector.getClass().getCanonicalName().endswith(caching_name_suffix): class_name = get_field_value(j_topic_selector, 'topicSelector')\ .getClass().getCanonicalName() > if class_name.startswith('com.sun.proxy') or > class_name.startswith('jdk.proxy'): E AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'startswith' {code} My assumption is that {{getCanonicalName}} returns {{null}} for some objects, and this set of objects may have increased in Java 17. I tried adding a null check, but that caused other tests to fail. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
