Correction: I have the row’s RowTypeInfo at runtime before the job starts. I don’t have RowTypeInfo at compile time.

I only have the row’s fields after the job starts. I can construct RowTypeInfo for the Row but I’m not sure how to add that to Flink’s generated type information for the case class. Without it, I understandably get the following error because Flink doesn’t know the Row’s TypeInformation: org.apache.flink.api.common.InvalidProgramException: This type (GenericType<org.apache.flink.types.Row>) cannot be used as key. Is there a way to manually construct or annotate the type information for the case class to provide the Row’s type information so it can be used in a join? I could alternately replace the case class with a Tuple and construct a TupleTypeInfo but a tuple is more difficult to use than a case class. Thanks, Joshua
