ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-8554: --------------------------------------- Github user bowenli86 commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5978 Are there anything in `1.11.325` we desperately need? If not, I would oppose upgrading AWS SDK too frequently. Highly likely that we don't need any of the new changes in `1.11.325`. As you can see, the current sdk version is `1.11.319` which is upgraded just a few days ago. There're a few reasons we should discourage it: - It doesn't add much value, and we don't really need it - It costs lots of unnecessary work from both contributors and Flink community (committers, reviewers, etc) - AWS releases their SDK very frequently, in a much faster pace than we can possibly catch up > Upgrade AWS SDK > --------------- > > Key: FLINK-8554 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8554 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build System > Reporter: Ted Yu > Assignee: vinoyang > Priority: Minor > > AWS SDK 1.11.271 fixes a lot of bugs. > One of which would exhibit the following: > {code} > Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException > at com.amazonaws.metrics.AwsSdkMetrics.getRegion(AwsSdkMetrics.java:729) > at com.amazonaws.metrics.MetricAdmin.getRegion(MetricAdmin.java:67) > at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor132.invoke(Unknown Source) > at > sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) > at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498) > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
