> State Descriptors drop TypeInformation on serialization
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-9034
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-9034
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: State Backends, Checkpointing
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.4.2
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: Stephan Ewen
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> The following code currently causes problems
> {code}
> public class MyFunction extends RichMapFunction<A, B> {
> private final ValueStateDescriptor<MyType> descr = new
> ValueStateDescriptor<>("state name", MyType.class);
> private ValueState<MyType> state;
> @Override
> public void open() {
> state = getRuntimeContext().getValueState(descr);
> }
> }
> {code}
> The problem is that the state descriptor drops the type information and
> creates a serializer before serialization as part of shipping the function in
> the cluster. To do that, it initializes the serializer with an empty
> execution config, making serialization inconsistent.
> This is mainly an artifact from the days when dropping the type information
> before shipping was necessary, because the type info was not serializable. It
> now is, and we can fix that bug.
