Márton Balassi created FLINK-5156: ------------------------------------- Summary: Consolidate streaming FieldAccessor functionality Key: FLINK-5156 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5156 Project: Flink Issue Type: Task Reporter: Márton Balassi
The streaming FieldAccessors (keyedStream.keyBy(...)) have slightly different semantics compared to their batch counterparts. Currently the streaming ones allow selecting a field within an array (which might be dangerous as the array typeinfo does not contain the length of the array, thus leading to a potential index out of bounds) and accept not only "*", but also "0" to select a whole type. This functionality should be either removed or documented. The latter can be achieved by effectively reverting [1]. Note that said commit was squashed before merging.
