Jiangjie Qin created FLINK-18428:
------------------------------------
Summary: StreamExecutionEnvironment#continuousSource() method
should be renamed to source()
Key: FLINK-18428
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18428
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Bug
Components: API / DataStream
Reporter: Jiangjie Qin
The current code in master did not follow the [latest FLIP-27
discussion|[https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r54287e9c9880916560bb97c38962db7b4d326056a7b23a9d0416e6a7%40%3Cdev.flink.apache.org%3E]],
where we should have a \{{StreamExecutionEnvironment#source()}} instead of
\{{StreamExecutionEnvironment#continuousSource()}}. The concern was that the
latter would mislead the users to think that the execution is always in
streaming mode while it actually depends on the boundedness of the source.
