Chesnay Schepler commented on FLINK-5380:
-----------------------------------------

This is a problem with detecting which operator's metrics should be used for a 
task.

Consider a chain A -> B. Both operators A and B measure how many records they 
receive and send. Since the WebInterface however only views them as a single 
task we don't need all of these; we only need the input count from A and output 
from B; or in other words the input from the first operator and the output from 
the last.

Which metrics are reused is governed by the isChainStart/isChainEnd properties 
of the StreamConfig, which are set in the in the 
StreamingJobGraphGenerator#createChain.

The issue is simply that I did not account for the case where a chain only 
consists of a single operator; in which case we need both the in- and output 
metrics.

In short, adding 

{code}
if (chainableOutputs.isEmpty()) {
        config.setChainEnd();
}
{code}
at the end of the 
{code}
if (currentNodeId.equals(startNodeId)) {
{code}
block should fix this issue.
