[~rmetzger] Thanks for the suggestion. That sounds a good improvement.
[~zzodoo] I just assigned the ticket to you.
> KafkaSource does not implement ResultTypeQueryable
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-20158
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-20158
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Connectors / Kafka
> Affects Versions: 1.12.0
> Reporter: Robert Metzger
> Assignee: Egor Ilchenko
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.12.0
>
>
> As a user of the new Kafka Source introduced in (FLINK-18323), I always have
> to specify the return type:
> {code}
> DataStream<Event> events = env.fromSource(source,
> WatermarkStrategy.noWatermarks(),
> "Kafka
> Source").returns(TypeInformation.of(Event.class));
> {code}
> The old Kafka source implementation implements {{ResultTypeQueryable}}, which
> allows the DataStream API to get the return type from the deserializer.
> The new Kafka Source also should have access to the produced type from the
> deserializer to forward it.
