Felix Neutatz commented on FLINK-1398: -------------------------------------- @Fabian: you can see my second implementation which only needs 26 lines of code. I think this is really a good trade -off when I think about the use case where I have to implement everytime an extra MapFunction. > A new DataSet function: extractElementFromTuple > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-1398 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1398 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Felix Neutatz > Priority: Minor > > This is the use case: > {code:xml} > DataSet<Tuple2<Integer, Double>> data = env.fromElements(new > Tuple2<Integer, Double>(1,2.0)); > > data.map(new ElementFromTuple()); > > } > public static final class ElementFromTuple implements > MapFunction<Tuple2<Integer, Double>, Double> { > @Override > public Double map(Tuple2<Integer, Double> value) { > return value.f1; > } > } > {code} > It would be awesome if we had something like this: > {code:xml} > data.extractElement(1); > {code} > This means that we implement a function for DataSet which extracts a certain > element from a given Tuple. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
