Ideally, timestamp assignment (and > watermark generation) is best placed as close as possible to the data > sources. It would be nice to generate a warning to the user (i.e. to the > log) before job execution if the framework detects timestamp assignment > (directly or indirectly placed) after a union. > Some more background information for this issue can be found in this email > thread: > http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/union-followed-by-timestamp-assignment-watermark-generation-td13036.html -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
