ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-5985: --------------------------------------- Github user gyfora commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3523 There seems to have been some changes in the StreamTask and some tests so I couldn't rebase this nicely. Do you have a minute to take a look and maybe push a branch with the backport please? That would help me a lot. > Flink treats every task as stateful (making topology changes impossible) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-5985 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5985 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: State Backends, Checkpointing > Affects Versions: 1.2.0 > Reporter: Gyula Fora > Priority: Critical > > It seems that Flink treats every Task as stateful so changing the topology > is not possible without setting uid on every single operator. > If the topology has an iteration this is virtually impossible (or at least > gets super hacky) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
