Aljoscha Krettek commented on FLINK-8477: ----------------------------------------- I think skipping windows by counting them is not a good choice for general cases, where you can have windows that are out of order if you have event-time processing. Specifying a number of windows to skip is also not very accurate when trying to hit a certain point in time but if it really must be done I think it could be done in a custom {{ProcessWindowFunction}} (or {{WindowFunction}}). Although, a better Idea would probably be to filter windows by a certain start timestamp in the window function. > Add api to support for user to skip the first incomplete window data > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-8477 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8477 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: DataStream API > Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.3.2 > Reporter: aitozi > Assignee: aitozi > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.4.2 > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
