Hi,

I'm using the Flink interpreter and the benv environment. I'm reading some
csv files using benv.readCsvFile and it works ok. I have also defined a
case class C for the csv records. The problem happens when I apply a
map operation on the DataSet of tuples returned by benv.readCsvFile, to
convert it into a DataSet[C].

   - If I define the case class C in some cell I get this error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: The class C is an
instance class, meaning it is not a member of a toplevel object, or of an
object contained in a toplevel object, therefore it requires an outer
instance to be instantiated, but we don't have a reference to the outer
instance. Please consider changing the outer class to an object.


   - That sounds related to this
   
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36042720/case-class-serialazation-in-flink,
   it looks like the zeppelin flink interpreter is wrapping the case class
   definition as an inner class. I tried defining the case class C inside an
   object Types that I define in another cell. With that I also get a
   serialization exception.

I guess that didn't work because the object Types is still defined inside
some class implicitly defined by the interpreter.

Any thoughs about how can I fix this? Also, I understand $line163 etc refer
to the code in the cells, is there some convention I can use to understand
to which line in the notebook those error messages are referring to?

Thanks in advance,

Juan
