             Summary: Lamdba expression in flatMap throws InvalidTypesException 
in DataSet
                 Key: FLINK-7010
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7010
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Fang Yong


When I create an example and use lambda in flatMap as follows
{{
    ExecutionEnvironment env = ExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment();
    DataSet<String> source = env.fromCollection(
        Lists.newArrayList("hello", "flink", "test", "flat", "map", "lambda"));
    DataSet<Tuple2<Integer, String>> tupled = source.flatMap((word, out) -> {
      int length = word.length();
      out.collect(Tuple2.of(length, word));
    });
    try {
      tupled.print();
    } catch (Exception e) {
      throw new RuntimeException(e);
    }
}}
InvalidTypesException was throwed and the exception stack is as follows:
{{
Caused by: org.apache.flink.api.common.functions.InvalidTypesException: The 
return type of function 'testFlatMap(FlatMapTest.java:20)' could not be 
determined automatically, due to type erasure. You can give type information 
hints by using the returns(...) method on the result of the transformation 
call, or by letting your function implement the 'ResultTypeQueryable' interface.

        at org.apache.flink.api.java.DataSet.print(DataSet.java:1605)
Caused by: org.apache.flink.api.common.functions.InvalidTypesException: The 
generic type parameters of 'Collector' are missing. 
It seems that your compiler has not stored them into the .class file. 
Currently, only the Eclipse JDT compiler preserves the type information 
necessary to use the lambdas feature type-safely. 
See the documentation for more information about how to compile jobs containing 
lambda expressions.

}}

The 20th line code is {{ DataSet<Tuple2<Integer, String>> tupled = 
source.flatMap((word, out) -> { }}
When I use FlatMapFunction instead of lambda, it will be all right
