vinoyang edited comment on FLINK-9461 at 11/23/18 11:44 AM: ------------------------------------------------------------ hi [~twalthr] Thank you for your explanation of the context. I should confirm with you to make sure I have not misunderstood what you mean. Whether we can migrate the classes to flink-table-common, which are originally in flink-table but are dependent on flink-connector-kafka, such as StreamTableSource. Then make flink-connector-kafka directly dependent on flink-table-common instead of flink-table. If the answer is yes, I can start the progress right now, right? was (Author: yanghua): hi [~twalthr] Thank you for your explanation of the context.

The reason seems to be that the module > contains the {{KafkaJsonTableSource}} and {{KafkaJsonTableSink}}. Even though > the {{flink-table}} and {{flink-json}} dependency are marked as optional, the > {{flink-connector-kafka}} will still contain the table sources and sinks. I > think this is not a clean design. > I would propose to move the table sources and sinks into a dedicated module > which depends on {{flink-connector-kafka}}. That way we would better separate > dependencies and could remove {{flink-table}} and {{flink-json}} from > {{flink-connector-kafka}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
