             Summary: Is FileSystem source unsupported?
                 Key: FLINK-19817
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19817
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Connectors / FileSystem
            Reporter: CloseRiver


When I create a table with filesystem connector + parquet format.Then read from 
the table and received the following exception.

 
{code:java}
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Complex types not supported.    at 
org.apache.flink.formats.parquet.vector.ParquetColumnarRowSplitReader.checkSchema(ParquetColumnarRowSplitReader.java:226)
    at 
org.apache.flink.formats.parquet.vector.ParquetColumnarRowSplitReader.<init>(ParquetColumnarRowSplitReader.java:144)

{code}
Then I found the description in official document

 

`File system sources for streaming is still under development. In the future, 
the community will add support for common streaming use cases, i.e., partition 
and directory monitoring.`

means that read from flilesystem is not supported currently.

But the above exception make users confused.If there is a msg about reading 
from filesystem is unsupported will be friendly.
