----------------------------------------
Summary: Remove "stop" signal along with Stoppable interfaces
Key: FLINK-11889
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11889
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: API / DataStream
Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek
Fix For: 1.9.0
During the discussion of
[FLIP-34|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=103090212]
we realised that it would be beneficial for this new feature to replace the
existing "stop" functionality. The current "stop" functionality cannot be used
because no real-world sources support the functionality. Therefore, I think it
is save to remove because it should not break existing workflows.
The issue proposes completely removing the old stop feature, introduced via
FLINK-2111, as preparation for
[FLIP-34|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=103090212].
We have to be careful when doing this because it touches quite a few things.
Basically, we have to do a manual revert of this commit:
