Hi, I couldn't get flink and kafka working together. It looks like all examples I tried from web site fails with the following Exception.
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.flink.streaming.connectors.kafka.FlinkKafkaConsumerBase *or when I do something like this like it is in the website* val stream = senv.addSource(new FlinkKafkaConsumer08[String]("join_test", new SimpleStringSchema(), properties)).print() *I get the following exception* <console>:73: error: overloaded method value addSource with alternatives: [T](function: org.apache.flink.streaming.api.functions.source.SourceFunction.SourceContext[T] => Unit)(implicit evidence$10: org.apache.flink.api.common.typeinfo.TypeInformation[T])org.apache.flink.streaming.api.scala.DataStream[T] <and> [T](function: org.apache.flink.streaming.api.functions.source.SourceFunction[T])(implicit evidence$9: org.apache.flink.api.common.typeinfo.TypeInformation[T])org.apache.flink.streaming.api.scala.DataStream[T] cannot be applied to (org.apache.flink.streaming.connectors.kafka.FlinkKafkaConsumer08[String]) val stream = senv.addSource(new FlinkKafkaConsumer08[String]("join_test", new SimpleStringSchema(), properties)).print() can anyone share a simple example of how to get Kafka Stream as a Table using scala shell? No need for any fancy schema just needs to print the value. I am using the latest version of flink 1.41 and my lib folder containers flink-connector-kafka-0.8_2.11-1.4.1.jar I wanted to use Kafka 0.9 but that didn't work so I thought let me just get something working first and downgraded to 0.8 but 0.8 examples on the website also don't seem to work using scala shell. Thanks!!
