Ewen Cheslack-Postava updated KAFKA-3487: ----------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) Issue resolved by pull request 3028 [https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/3028] > KIP-146: Support per-connector/per-task classloaders in Connect > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-3487 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3487 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: KafkaConnect > Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0 > Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava > Assignee: Konstantine Karantasis > Priority: Critical > Labels: needs-kip > Fix For: 0.11.0.0 > > > Currently we just use the default ClassLoader in Connect. However, this > limits how we can compatibly load conflicting connector plugins. Ideally we > would use a separate class loader per connector/task that is instantiated to > avoid potential conflicts. > Note that this also opens up options for other ways to provide jars to > instantiate connectors. For example, Spark uses this to dynamically publish > classes defined in the REPL and load them via URL: > https://ardoris.wordpress.com/2014/03/30/how-spark-does-class-loading/ But > much simpler examples (include URL in the connector class instead of just > class name) are also possible and could be a nice way to more support dynamic > sets of connectors, multiple versions of the same connector, etc. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
