Yes, I was aware of that new test. :smile: The PollingSourceFunction I
didn't implement because I think this is orthogonal to this work.
For the operators, I think it's not a problem because I think they refer to
different concepts. The TwoInputOperator is a physical operator that happens to
have two inputs. The CoStreamMap is a higher level concept that implements a
Map over two connected streams. And it just so happens that this concept can be
implemented using the "physical" two input operator.
> Rework Stream Operators to always be push based

> This is a result of the discussion on the mailing list. This is an excerpt
> from the mailing list that gives the basic idea of the change:
> I propose to change all streaming operators to be push based, with a
> slightly improved interface: In addition to collect(), which I would
> call receiveElement() I would add receivePunctuation() and
> receiveBarrier(). The first operator in the chain would also get data
> from the outside invokable that reads from the input iterator and
> calls receiveElement() for the first operator in a chain.
