> if someone downloads the binary distribution of Flink and tries to run it on a VM, are they expected to set an appropriate [FLINK_]CLASSPATH variable? To answer your example: No, it is generally not required. They may though, if they want it to contain something specific that would not be put onto classpath by the distribution on it's own. An example might be jars that are put into a mounted directory. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
