Thanks Matthias for the reply.
Maybe I should explain what I want to do better.My objective is to deploy a
flink topology on flink using java but in the production mode. For that here
are the step that I have taken.
1-Convert a sample wordcount storm topology to a flink topology as indicated
here https://flink.apache.org/news/2015/12/11/storm-compatibility.html2-Run the
topology on local mode (with my IDE eclipse) and on production mode by
assembling everything with a mvn clean install then submitting the jar to flink
on the command line with
./bin/flink run -c stormWorldCount.WordCountTopology
/home/raymond/testFlink/target/storm_example-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
myFlinkTopology
At this level everything went well.
Then I wanted to submit the same jar to flink on the production mode by using a
java program. Then I decided to create a mainMethod in my topology that returns
the flinkTopology which I wanted to submit to flink using the FlinkClient. But
I'm stuck at the level when I want to copy that from the jar to submit it to
flink.
I know that is possible because I have used the same procedure with a storm
topology that it works perfectly well.
What I'm missing please?

Hi jstar,
I need to have a close look. But I am wondering why you use reflection
in the first place? Is there any specific reason for that?
Furthermore, the example provided in project maven-example also covers
the case to submit a topology to Flink via Java. Have a look at
org.apache.flink.storm.wordcount.WordCountRemoteBySubmitter
It contains a main() method and you can just run it as a regular Java
program in your IDE.
The SO question example should also work; it also contains a main()
method, so you should be able to run it.
Btw: If you use Storm-Compatiblitly-API there is no reason the get an
ExecutuionEnvironment in you code. This happen automatically with
FlinkClient/FlinkSubmitter.
Furthermore, I would recommend to use FlinkSubmitter instead of
FlinkClient as it is somewhat simpler to use.
About SO question: I guess the problem is the jar assembling. The user says
"Since I'using maven to handle my dependencies, I do a Mvn clean install
to obtain the jar."
I guess this is not sufficient to bundle a correct jar. Have a look into
pom.xml from storm-examples. It uses maven plug-ins in assemble the jar
correctly. (Regular maven artifact do not work for job submission...)
Will have a close look and follow up... Hope this helps already.
