I updated the code a little bit for clarity, now the line #56 mentioned in my previous message is line #25.
In summary the error I'm getting is this: --- Caused by: org.apache.flink.streaming.runtime.tasks.StreamTaskException: Cannot load user class: com.test.Test ClassLoader info: URL ClassLoader: Class not resolvable through given classloader. --- But if I'm not wrong, after trying to load the class through URLClassLoader, Flink should try loading it with its parent ClassLoader, which should be the same ClassLoader that executed the environment, and it does have access to the class. Not sure what is wrong.
