Luke Cwik commented on BEAM-10016:
----------------------------------
The issue is that the GreedyPipelineFuser (and related classes) doesn't take
into account the change in the encoding from the flattens input to the flattens
output in certain scenarios where the flatten isn't being merged with an
existing stage.
Normally one could copy the coder from the flatten's output PCollection to all
the input PCollections to fix this but this doesn't hold when dealing with
cross language pipelines because we could have
{code:java}
ParDo(Java) -> PC(big endian int coder) -> Flatten(Python) ->
PC(varint coder)
ParDo(Go) -> PCollection(little endian int coder) /{code}
The Python SDK in this case would know big endian int coder, little endian int
coder and varint coder but Java/Go would only know the big endian int coder and
little endian int coder respectively.
The solution in the above example is to make the Python SDK perform the
transcoding by having it execute the flatten. Only flattens where the
input/output coder matches can be done by a runner since no transcoding is
necessary.
