--------------------------------------

             Summary: Change/remove mentions of "mode" in Source and Sink 
documentation
                 Key: FLINK-26656
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-26656
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Connectors / FileSystem, Documentation
            Reporter: Martijn Visser
            Assignee: Martijn Visser


The FileSource documentation contains sentences like:

{code:java}
 * <p>When you start creating a file source (via the {@link 
FileSource.FileSourceBuilder} created
 * through one of the above-mentioned methods) the source is by default in 
bounded/batch mode. Call
 * {@link FileSource.FileSourceBuilder#monitorContinuously(Duration)} to put 
the source into
 * continuous streaming mode.
{code}

The word "mode" causes confusion when compared to batch and streaming execution 
mode. Sources and sinks should not care about runtime modes, they can be 
configured to deal with either bounded or unbounded data. This should be 
cleaned-up/rewritten.
