Hi, I would expect that the local environment picks up the class path from the code that launched it. So I think the question is what happens behind the scenes when you call ignite.compute().broadcast(runnable); . Which classes are shipped and how is the classpath build in the environment that runs the code. Your example is also not fully conclusive, because com.myproj.Test (which you can successfully instantiate) and com.myproj.Test$1$2 (which fails) are different classes, so maybe only the outer class is shipped with the broadcast call. My theory is that not all classes are shipped (e.g. inner classes), but only Test . You could try three things to analyze to problem a little more:
1) Create another inner class inside Test and try if you are still able to instantiate also this class via reflection. 2) Let Test class itself implement the map function (avoiding the usage of other/inner classes) and see if this works. 3) Check and set the thread’s context classloader inside the runnable to something that contains all required classes and see if this gets picked up by Flink.
