[FLINK-8729][streaming] Refactor JSONGenerator to use jackson
> Migrate JSONGenerator from Sling to Jackson
> ---
>
> Key: FLINK-8729
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8729
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build System, Streaming
>Reporter: Stephan Ewen
>Assignee: Chesnay Schepler
>Priority: Minor
> Labels: beginner, easy-fix, starter
>
> The {{org.apache.flink.streaming.api.graph.JSONGenerator}} uses Slink for
> JSON encoding, adding an extra dependency. All other Flink parts use a
> specially shaded Jackson dependency.
> Migrating the JSONGenerator would allow us to drop a dependency and make the
> code more homogeneous.
