Class BroadcastVariableManager

java.lang.Object

org.apache.flink.runtime.broadcast.BroadcastVariableManager

public class BroadcastVariableManager
extends Object

The BroadcastVariableManager is used to manage the materialization of broadcast variables. References to materialized broadcast variables are cached and shared between parallel subtasks. A reference count is maintained to track whether the materialization may be cleaned up.

Throws:

IOException
