Flink 1.2 does not support windows in SQL. The upcoming Flink 1.3, which is currently in testing phase and should be released in a few weeks, allows you define several types of windows in SQL.
There are three types of group windows [1] (note that the syntax for the time indicators changed a bit, check the test cases for example [2]) and OVER windows as know from standard SQL (limitations are all aggregations in a SELECT stmt have to operate on the same window, order by only on time, and no FOLLOWING rows/range). Examples for OVER windows are in the tests as well [3].
