Github user rmetzger commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3933 Lets see what Till says. In my opinion, both approaches are fine. What you are proposing makes things on Flink's side a bit more complicated, but the behavior is consistent with other places where user code is executed. Till's proposal (so get the CL via the class) keeps our code straightforward, but users have to know it.
