Hi @haohui, I revisited this, but I think there is no easy workaround for
this, unfortunately.
This can only be properly merged in 1.4 after some additional requirements
are added to Flink.
However, if you know that during Flink 1.2 your FlinkKafkaConsumer was not
rescaled before, then in that case specifically you should be able to use this
patch. It would however require a custom build of the connector on your side.
