########## flink-connectors/flink-connector-base/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/connector/base/source/hybrid/HybridSourceReader.java: ########## @@ -231,16 +236,7 @@ private void setCurrentReader(int index) { reader.start(); currentSourceIndex = index; currentReader = reader; - currentReader - .isAvailable() - .whenComplete( - (result, ex) -> { - if (ex == null) { - availabilityFuture.complete(result); - } else { - availabilityFuture.completeExceptionally(ex); - } - }); Review Comment: If I understand the process in the alternative solution: 1. A new reader is set. 2. When the reader future is done, renew the future. What is the process that renews the renewed future in step 2? Such a process would need to be recursively ran outside of this reader switch handling method. And repeatedly signaling completeness from the underlying reader and renewing again and again. (This is why PR introduces the MultipleFuturesAvailabilityHelper to coordinate this additional complexity) Also in the code snippet above, I think there could be a need for synchronization on the future variable, since `whenComplete()` would not be guaranteed to run on the task thread, unless we use `whenCompleteAsync()` and pass the task executor, which we don't have access to. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
