ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-2668: --------------------------------------- Github user fhueske commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1279#issuecomment-149952138 Do we agree to break the API for this change? And if so, should we add this change before or after the 0.10 release? > ProjectOperator method to close projection > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLINK-2668 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2668 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Java API > Affects Versions: 0.10 > Reporter: Greg Hogan > Priority: Minor > > I have come across an issue in my code where I called project(...) on a > {{DataSet}} which was already a {{ProjectOperator}}. Instead of reducing the > number of fields from 2 to 1 this instead increased the number of fields from > 2 to 3 resulting in > {{org.apache.flink.api.common.functions.InvalidTypesException: Input > mismatch: Tuple arity '3' expected but was '1'.}} when processing the next > operator. > This can be resolved by adding an optional explicit call to conclude the > projection, perhaps {{ProjectOperator.closeProjection()}}. Can this be done > without creating a new no-op operator? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
