Github user tillrohrmann commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1104#issuecomment-138573293 Is it really necessary to discuss an obvious bug on the mailing list? The `EitherTypeInfo` suffers from the same problem and, thus, it seams to be a systematic error. In order to prevent future mistakes like this, I don't see a different way than making the developer aware that he has to implement these methods.
