---------------------------------
Summary: Display Data fails on transforms with nested components
of the same type
Key: BEAM-745
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-745
Project: Beam
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Scott Wegner
Assignee: Scott Wegner
Display Data supports the notion of "sub components", components within a
transform class which can contribute their own display data. We add a namespace
to display data items based on the originating component, which keeps the
display data items unique within the step.
There are instances where a component is included multiple times within a step.
We handle the case of the same instance being shared by simply ignoring it the
second time. However, we don't handle the case of a separate instance being
added of the same class. Currently the separate instances will add display data
with the same namespace and key, causing a failure.
This can come up for example when infrastructure at different levels wrap and
re-wrap a component. We saw this with a bounded source being adapted multiple
times, Bounded -> Unbounded -> Bounded -> Unbounded. The
BoundedToUnboundedSourceAdapter was included multiple times with separate
instances and caused a failure while populating display data.
See: https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/pull/1088 for a failing test case.
