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

Hi [~wind_ljy], thanks for explanation.

I'm not sure I have fully understood your requirement. I guess there are a lot 
of other details in your scenario. Anyway regardless others, it seems that you 
want a periodic checking for each key (chatting room) in window operator. I'm 
wondering it's general enough. For example, what if someone else wants a 
periodic checking based on other fields (not the key)? It's a bit customized 
from my perspective.

> In our scenario, user needs to access the key of {{WindowOperator.Context}} 
> to determine how to deal with the window.
> I think it's reasonable to support {{getKey()}} method in 
> {{WindowOperator.Context}}.
