Good evening,
I started working with the beta Flink SQL in BatchTableEnvironment and I am interested to convert the resulted Table object into a DataSet<Tuple2<String,Integer>>. I give some lines of code as example: DataSet<Tuple4<String,String,Double,Double>> ds1 = ... tableEnv.registerDataSet("EventsTable", ds1, "event_id,region,latitude,longitude"); Table result = tableEnv.sql("SELECT region, COUNT(event_id) AS counter FROM EventsTable GROUP BY region"); TypeInformation<Tuple2<String, Integer>> typeInformation = TypeInformation.of(new TypeHint<Tuple2<String, Integer>>() { }); DataSet<Tuple2<String, Integer>> resDS = tableEnv.toDataSet(result, typeInformation); At runtime, I get error: Caused by: org.apache.flink.api.table.codegen.CodeGenException: Incompatible types of expression and result type. at org.apache.flink.api.table.codegen.CodeGenerator$$anonfun$generateResultExpression$2.apply(CodeGenerator.scala:327) at org.apache.flink.api.table.codegen.CodeGenerator$$anonfun$generateResultExpression$2.apply(CodeGenerator.scala:325) at scala.collection.Iterator$class.foreach(Iterator.scala:727) at scala.collection.AbstractIterator.foreach(Iterator.scala:1157) at scala.collection.IterableLike$class.foreach(IterableLike.scala:72) at scala.collection.AbstractIterable.foreach(Iterable.scala:54) at org.apache.flink.api.table.codegen.CodeGenerator.generateResultExpression(CodeGenerator.scala:325) at org.apache.flink.api.table.codegen.CodeGenerator.generateConverterResultExpression(CodeGenerator.scala:269) at org.apache.flink.api.table.plan.nodes.dataset.DataSetRel$class.getConversionMapper(DataSetRel.scala:89) at org.apache.flink.api.table.plan.nodes.dataset.DataSetAggregate.getConversionMapper(DataSetAggregate.scala:38) at org.apache.flink.api.table.plan.nodes.dataset.DataSetAggregate.translateToPlan(DataSetAggregate.scala:142) at org.apache.flink.api.table.BatchTableEnvironment.translate(BatchTableEnvironment.scala:274) at org.apache.flink.api.java.table.BatchTableEnvironment.toDataSet(BatchTableEnvironment.scala:163) What is the correct way to achieve this ? According to solved JIRA issue FLINK-1991 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1991) , this is now possible (in Flink 1.1.0). As a side note, it works transforming to DataSet<Row>, but when trying to convert to a POJO dataset (again with fields String region and Integer counter) it gives the same error as above. Thanks in advance, Best regards, Camelia
