Hi,
I am trying to get flink schema evolution to work for me using POJO
serializer. But I found out that if an enum is present in the POJO then the
POJO serializer is not used. Example of my POJO is as follows :
public class Rule {
String id;int val;
RuleType ruleType;//Newly added field//int val2 = 0;
public Rule() {}
public Rule(String id, int val, RuleType ruleType) {
this.id = id;
this.val = val;
this.ruleType = ruleType;
//this.val2 = val2;
}
public String getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
public int getVal() {
return val;
}
public void setVal(int val) {
this.val = val;
}
public RuleType getRuleType() {
return ruleType;
}
public void setRuleType(RuleType ruleType) {
this.ruleType = ruleType;
}
//public int getVal2() {// return val2;//}
//public void setVal2(int val2) {// this.val2 = val2;//}
@Overridepublic boolean equals(Object o) {
if (this == o) return true;
if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
Rule rule = (Rule) o;
return val == rule.val && id.equals(rule.id) && ruleType == rule.ruleType;
}
@Overridepublic int hashCode() {
return Objects.hash(id, val, ruleType);
}
@Overridepublic String toString() {
return "Rule{" +
"name='" + id + '\'' +
", val=" + val +
", ruleType=" + ruleType +
'}';
}
}
RuleType is an enum class as follows :
public enum RuleType {
X,
Y,
Z
}
Now for the Rule class the schema evolution (Adding a new field called
val2), works only if I write a custom typeFactory for this class.
Is there a way that I can write typeFactory for the enum class ? Why does
the flink not recognize enum in a POJO class ?
