Hi all! We discovered a nice way to give TypeHints in the Google Cloud Dataflow SDK, in a way that would fit Flink perfectly. I created a JIRA for that: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2788
Since this is more powerful and type safe than the String/Parser way of giving hints, I was wondering whether we should add this and deprecate the String variant. If we do that, 1.0 is the time to do that. What do you think about this idea? @Timo Walther Since you worked a lot on types/parser/etc - what is your take on this? Greetings, Stephan
