When Flink is trying to analyze the POJO, the {{getAllDeclaredFields}} method 
fails with a RuntimeException. When the user is using a different class that 
contains the POJO, it just uses the GenericTypeInfo which is able to serialize 
the type.
I think we need to throw a InvalidTypesException in the 
{{getAllDeclaredFields}} method to fix the issue
