Description

The kafka example jar shading configuration includes the following files:

<include>org/apache/flink/streaming/examples/kafka/**</include>
<include>org/apache/flink/streaming/**</include>
<include>org/apache/kafka/**</include>
<include>org/apache/curator/**</include>
<include>org/apache/zookeeper/**</include>
<include>org/apache/jute/**</include>
<include>org/I0Itec/**</include>
<include>jline/**</include>
<include>com/yammer/**</include>
<include>kafka/**</include>

Problems:

• the inclusion of org.apache.flink.streaming causes large parts of the API (and runtime...) to be included in the jar, along the Twitter source and all other examples
• the yammer, jline, l0ltec, jute, zookeeper and curator inclusions are ineffective; none of these classes show up in the example jar
