Till Rohrmann created FLINK-7947: ------------------------------------ Summary: Let ParameterTool return a dedicated GlobalJobParameters object Key: FLINK-7947 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7947 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Client Affects Versions: 1.4.0 Reporter: Till Rohrmann
The {{ParameterTool}} directly implements the {{GlobalJobParameters}} interface. Additionally it has grown over time to not only store the configuration parameters but also to record which parameters have been requested and what default value was set. This information is irrelevant on the server side when setting a {{GlobalJobParameters}} object via {{ExecutionConfig#setGlobalJobParameters}}. Since we don't separate the {{ParameterTool}} logic and the actual data view, users ran into problems when reusing the same {{ParameterTool}} to start multiple jobs concurrently (see FLINK-7943). I think it would be a much clearer separation of concerns if we would actually split the {{GlobalJobParameters}} from the {{ParameterTool}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
