Rui Li updated FLINK-20549:
---------------------------
Description:
When users change session properties from SQL client, {{LocalExecutor}} creates
a new {{ExecutionContext}}. The new {{ExecutionContext}} inherits
{{SessionState}} from previous session, which means the loaded Catalog/Module
instances are reused. Since Catalog/Module are pluggable, the classes may come
from user jars. However the new {{ExecutionContext}} doesn't inherit
classloader from previous session. That means when the Catalog/Module instances
are used, the thread context classloader and the defining classloader are
different.
This can cause problems such as:
# Define a {{HiveModule}} in yaml file. Don't put the hive connector jar under
lib folder, but add it through the {{"-l"}} option when launching the SQL
client.
# Run some query using a hive built-in function.
# Change some session property to trigger a re-creation of {{ExecutionContext}}.
# Run the same query again and it would fail because the hive built-in function
cannot be instantiated.
> New ExecutionContext doesn't inherit classloader from previous context
