--------------------------------------
Summary: Align the behavior of result of internal map state to
return empty iterator
Key: FLINK-17610
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-17610
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Runtime / State Backends
Affects Versions: 1.11.0
Reporter: Nicholas Jiang
There are different behaviors of result of internal map state. For
HeapMapState, #entries(), #keys(), #values(), and #iterator() would all return
null. However, for RocksDBMapState, #entries() would return null, while
#keys(), #values(), #iterator() would return empty iterator. UserFacingMapState
would align these behaviors to empty iterator for users, therefore this should
better align these internal behavior to return empty iterator instead of null.
