Hey everyone,

I'm currently trying to implement TPC-H Q1 and that involves ordering of
results. Now I'm not too familiar with the transformations yet, however for
the life of me I cannot figure out how to get it to work. Consider the
following toy example:

final ExecutionEnvironment env = ExecutionEnvironment
.getExecutionEnvironment();
DataSet<Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>> elems = env.fromElements(
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("a", 2, 1),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("b", 1, 2),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("a", 1, 3),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("b", 1, 4),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("a", 1, 5),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("b", 2, 6),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("a", 2, 7),
new Tuple3<String, Integer, Integer>("b", 2, 8));
elems.groupBy(0, 1).sum(2).print();

I want the output to be:
(a,1,8)
(a,2,8)
(b,1,6)
(b,2,14)

However the output is:
(a,2,8)
(b,1,6)
(b,2,14)
(a,1,8)

No matter where I place sorting of partitions or groups transformations
(strange enough I just realized that when I don't add any ordering, the
output is as expected; however this is just the case in the toy example and
not in my TPC-H Q1). Is it currently not possible to achieve an ordered
output in this case? Please bear with me if I overlooked the obvious, but I
could not get a clear picture from the documentation.

Btw. the code is right here:
https://github.com/robert-schmidtke/flink-benchmarks/blob/master/xtreemfs-flink-benchmark/src/main/java/org/xtreemfs/flink/benchmark/TPCH1Benchmark.java#L137
I verified the results with the provided data from TPC-H, apart from the
sorting everything is fine.

Thanks a bunch in advance,

Cheers
Robert
