Hi JM,
The dependency is set here:
https://github.com/apache/flink-connector-kafka/blob/main/flink-connector-kafka/pom.xml#L50-L55
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
<artifactId>flink-connector-base</artifactId>
<version>${flink.version}</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
We expect that the non-provided dependencies will be embedded in the jar,
as they are required for the connector.
The 3.0 kafka connector could be deployed to Flink 1.17.0/1.17.1/1.18.0,
but the flink-connector-base could be different for these versions.
Other connectors might have a different support matrix, so embedding any
flink-connector-base dependency would be a bad practice.
I hope this helps,
Peter
