Fabian Hueske created FLINK-1963: ------------------------------------ Summary: Improve distinct() transformation Key: FLINK-1963 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1963 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Java API, Scala API Affects Versions: 0.9 Reporter: Fabian Hueske Priority: Minor Fix For: 0.9
The `distinct()` transformation is a bit limited right now with respect to processing atomic key types: - `distinct(String ...)` works only for composite data types (POJO, tuple), but wildcard expression should also be supported for atomic key types - `distinct()` only works for composite types, but should also work for atomic key types - `distinct(KeySelector)` is the most generic one, but not very handy to use - `distinct(int ...)` works only for Tuple data types (which is fine) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
