> Key: FLINK-6018
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6018
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DataStream API, State Backends, Checkpointing
> Reporter: sunjincheng
> Assignee: sunjincheng
>
> The code snippet currently in the `AbstractKeyedStateBackend #
> getPartitionedState` method, as follows:
> {code}
> line 352: // TODO: This is wrong, it should throw an exception that the
> initialization has not properly happened
> line 353: if (!stateDescriptor.isSerializerInitialized()) {
> line 354: stateDescriptor.initializeSerializerUnlessSet(new
> ExecutionConfig());
> line 354 }
> {code}
> Method `isSerializerInitialized`:
> {code}
> public boolean isSerializerInitialized() {
> return serializer != null;
> }
> {code}
> Method `initializeSerializerUnlessSet`:
> {code}
> public void initializeSerializerUnlessSet(ExecutionConfig executionConfig) {
> if (serializer == null) {
> if (typeInfo != null) {
> serializer =
> typeInfo.createSerializer(executionConfig);
> } else {
> throw new IllegalStateException(
> "Cannot initialize serializer
> after TypeInformation was dropped during serialization");
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> that is, in the `initializeSerializerUnlessSet` method, The `serializer` has
> been checked by `serializer == null`.So I hope this code has a little
> improvement to the following:
> approach 1:
> According to the `TODO` information we throw an exception
> {code}
> if (!stateDescriptor.isSerializerInitialized()) {
> throw new IllegalStateException("The serializer of the
> descriptor has not been initialized!");
> }
> {code}
> approach 2:
> Try to initialize and remove `if (!stateDescriptor.isSerializerInitialized())
> {` logic.
> {code}
> stateDescriptor.initializeSerializerUnlessSet(new ExecutionConfig());
> {code}
> Meanwhile, If we use the approach 2, I suggest that
> `AbstractKeyedStateBackend` add a `private final ExecutionConfig
> executionConfig` property. then we can change the code like this:
> {code}
> stateDescriptor.initializeSerializerUnlessSet(executionConfig);
> {code}
> Are the above suggestions reasonable for you?
> Welcome anybody's feedback and corrections.
