Hi,

Thanks @Fabian and @Xingcan for the explanation.

@Xingcan Here I mean I have a data analytics server that has *data tables*.
So my initial requirement is to make a client connector for Flink to access
that* data tables*.Then I started with implementing Flink InputFormat
Interface and that was done.So before going to do processing using flink, I
need to read that table data. That's the thing I mean there.

My nextRecord() method will return our own data type called *Record. *Here
following are some sample Records in my data table.

------------------------------------------------------------

*TID: 1 Table Name: SAMPLETABLE1 ID: 818ab992-fdd6-4eea-7838-73dfbe5b3b0e
Timestamp: 1488359699780 Values: {STR2=Steve, STR1=Smith}TID: 1 Table Name:
SAMPLETABLE1 ID: dfe3a6c6-af82-e7f5-bfdd-4ac22f832464 Timestamp:
1488359699780 Values: {STR2=Nuwan, STR1=Pawan}TID: 1 Table Name:
SAMPLETABLE1 ID: 2933d3d9-fff7-94ed-ded4-ef023baa3783 Timestamp:
1488359699780 Values: {STR2=Gayle, STR1=Kohli}*
