ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-4247: --------------------------------------- Github user twalthr commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2298 @StephanEwen A user can also call `CsvInputFormat.nextRecord()` because it is public, but this was never a problem. If we want to restrict visibility of `TableSource` interface methods, we have to convert the interfaces to classes and provide 3 class for batch, stream, batch&stream. Also not very nice. In general, the Scala classes hide the Java API streams and environments within the Table API. But in this case the user wants to implement a custom TableSource and since the Table API is internally using the Java API I think it is ok, if Java API and not Scala API is used for that. > CsvTableSource.getDataSet() expects Java ExecutionEnvironment > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-4247 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4247 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Table API & SQL > Affects Versions: 1.1.0 > Reporter: Till Rohrmann > Priority: Minor > > The Table API offers the {{CsvTableSource}} which can be used with the Java > and Scala API. However, if used with the Scala API where on has obtained a > {{scala.api.ExecutionEnvironment}} there is a problem with the > {{CsvTableSource.getDataSet}} method. The method expects a > {{java.api.ExecutionEnvironment}} to extract the underlying {{DataSet}}. > Additionally it returns a {{java.api.DataSet}} instead of a > {{scala.api.DataSet}}. I think we should also offer a Scala API specific > CsvTableSource which works with the respective Scala counterparts. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
