Rong Rong updated FLINK-15475: ------------------------------ Description: Currently there's no way to "peek" into a `Transformation` object and see if `typeUsed` has been set or not. The only way is to invoke the `setOutputType` API and wrap around it with a try-catch block. See: It would be nice if we have a `isTypeUsed()` or `isOutputTypeUsed()` API to check whether a particular transformation has a definitive output type set / used or not. was: Currently there's no way to "peek" into a `Transformation` object and see if `typeUsed` has been set or not.
