wangjinhai created FLINK-10763: ---------------------------------- Summary: Cannot union streams of different types in the union method of DataStream class Key: FLINK-10763 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10763 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: DataStream API Affects Versions: 1.6.2, 1.5.5, 1.4.2, 1.3.3 Reporter: wangjinhai Fix For: 1.5.6, 1.6.3, 1.7.0
When stream is a Scala case class, the TypeInformation will fall back to GenericType in the process function which result in bad performance when union another DataStream. In the union method of DataStream, the type is first checked for equality. Here is an example: {code:java} object Test { def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = { val env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment val orderA: DataStream[Order] = env.fromCollection(Seq( Order(1L, "beer", 3), Order(1L, "diaper", 4), Order(3L, "rubber", 2))) val orderB: DataStream[Order] = env.fromCollection(Seq( new Order(2L, "pen", 3), new Order(2L, "rubber", 3), new Order(4L, "beer", 1))) val orderC: DataStream[Order] = orderA.keyBy(_.user) .intervalJoin(orderB.keyBy(_.user)) .between(Time.seconds(0), Time.seconds(0)) .process(new ProcessJoinFunction[Order, Order, Order] { override def processElement(left: Order, right: Order, ctx: ProcessJoinFunction[Order, Order, Order]#Context, out: Collector[Order]): Unit = { out.collect(left) }}) println("C: " + orderC.dataType.toString) println("B: " + orderB.dataType.toString) orderC.union(orderB).print() env.execute() } case class Order(user: Long, product: String, amount: Int) }{code} Here is the Exception: {code:java} Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot union streams of different types: GenericType<com.manbuyun.awesome.flink.Test.Order> and com.manbuyun.awesome.flink.Test$Order(user: Long, product: String, amount: Integer) at org.apache.flink.streaming.api.datastream.DataStream.union(DataStream.java:219) at org.apache.flink.streaming.api.scala.DataStream.union(DataStream.scala:357) at com.manbuyun.awesome.flink.Test$.main(Test.scala:38) at com.manbuyun.awesome.flink.Test.main(Test.scala){code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
