Chirag Dewan created FLINK-11198: ------------------------------------ Summary: Access to MetricGroup in an AggregateFunction(Non Rich) Key: FLINK-11198 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11198 Project: Flink Issue Type: New Feature Components: DataStream API Affects Versions: 1.6.2 Reporter: Chirag Dewan Fix For: 1.6.3
The only way to add custom metrics from UDF is through RuntimeContext. And, RuntimeContext is wired in every RichFunction implementation. However, for aggregate() in Windowed Stream, we cannot use the Rich version of AggregateFunction. As I remotely understand, is done to avoid exposing the state in the Aggregate UDF. But can we have some minimal context which does not expose state but provide metrics, classloader etc.in the UDF? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
