Purpose
Large batch scans can enable
scan.dedicated-split-generationto move split planning and emission from the JobManager source coordinator to a dedicated TaskManager operator. This avoids retaining and checkpointing a very large set of split assignments in the JobManager for tables with millions of files.However, the dedicated reader path did not preserve Blob conversion semantics.
ReadOperatoralways wrapped rows withFlinkRowData, so an internal Blob value was read asbyte[]and failed withClassCastException. This prevented Blob tables from using dedicated split generation.Changes
