Ken Geis commented on FLINK-3445: --------------------------------- To provide a little more context, I am coding in Groovy, and I am more interested in concise code than compile-time type checking and benefits like autocomplete in IDEs. Specifying all of the types for a query that returns 25 columns is a lot of code. (This is a separate issue, but I am running into limits with JDBCInputFormat being tied to Tuple which restricts it to <= 25 columns.) > make JDBCInputFormat implement ResultTypeQueryable > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-3445 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3445 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.10.2 > Reporter: Ken Geis > Assignee: Chesnay Schepler > > A JDBC statement can be interrogated to see what columns and types it will > return. Flink should be able to use this to make JDBCInputFormat implement > ResultTypeQueryable to provide type information without needing to code again. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
