I think this is not the right way to go. Simply check then length of the
arrays in the `compare` method and then call for all the elements the type
comparator of the element type of the array.
> DataSet API does not support multi-dimensional arrays as keys

> Key: FLINK-2678
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2678
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: DataSet API
> Reporter: Till Rohrmann
> Assignee: Subhobrata Dey
> Priority: Minor
>
> The DataSet API does not support grouping/sorting on field which are
> multi-dimensional arrays. It could be helpful to also support these types.
