Thanks for prompt reply.

Maybe the expression "Sink" is not suitable to what I need. What if I want
to *Collect* two data sets directly from the coGroup operator. Is there
anyway to do so ?!!

As I might know, the operator has only Collector Object, but I wonder if
there is another feature in Flink that supports what I need .

Thanks.
