flink java.lang.RuntimeException:null異常

flink程序在華爲雲上運行一段時間後，程序突然有問題，拋出異常了。

一、異常：

java.lang.RuntimeException: null
	at org.apache.flink.streaming.runtime.io.RecordWriterOutput.pushToRecordWriter(RecordWriterOutput.java:110)
	at org.apache.flink.streaming.runtime.io.RecordWriterOutput.collect(RecordWriterOutput.java:89)

	... 16 common frames omitted

二、解決思路

查看異常報告，發現

java.lang.NullPointerException: null
    at org.apache.flink.runtime.state.KeyGroupRangeAssignment.assignToKeyGroup(KeyGroupRangeAssignment.java:59)

發現異常出現在這一行，查看源碼，發現：

發現24行能報null的只有key.hashCode()；判斷應該是key是null，到這裏發現是我們的flink程序key可能爲null。

查看程序：我們將plateNo設爲flink的key

應該是flink消費kafka數據中的plateNo 屬性有爲null的數據。

解決：

if(plateNo ==null ||plateNo.equals("")){
     value.setPlateNo("null");
 }

修改後發現程序沒有問題了。問題定位準確。
