Sure. You don't need a trigger, but a WindowFunction instead of the FoldFunction. Only the WindowFunction has access to the Window object.
Something like this: poissHostStreams .timeWindow(Time.of(WINDOW_SIZE, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)) .apply(new WindowFunction<IN, OUT, KEY, TimeWindow>() { @override public void apply(KEY key, TimeWindow window, Iterable<IN> vals, Collector<OUT> out) { // YOUR CODE window.getEnd() } }) Best, Fabian 2015-12-10 14:41 GMT+01:00 Martin Neumann <mneum...@sics.se>: > Hi Fabian, > > thanks for your answer.
