> Warn user when assigning timestamps/watermarks after a union
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-6947
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6947
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DataStream API
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0, 1.2.1
> Reporter: Petr Novotnik
> Priority: Minor
>
> Placing timestamp assignment (and watermark generation) directly or
> indirectly after a union is generally not desirable as it may lead to
> surprising results at the client side. Ideally, timestamp assignment (and
> watermark generation) is best placed as close as possible to the data
> sources. It would be nice to generate a warning to the user (i.e. to the
> log) before job execution if the framework detects timestamp assignment
> (directly or indirectly placed) after a union.
> Some more background information for this issue can be found in this email
