For example, for ParDo, > environment will be inside SdkFunctionSpec of ParDoPayload. > [https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/model/pipeline/src/main/proto/beam_runner_api.proto#L99] > > This makes tracking environment of different types of PTransforms harder and > we have to fork code (on the type of PTransform) to extract the Environment > where the PTransform should be executed. It will probably be simpler to just > make Environment a top level attribute of PTransform. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.14#76016)
