Bowen Li updated FLINK-9545:
----------------------------
    Description: 
Motivation: We have the requirements to read a bunch files, each file to read 
multiple times, to feed our streams

Specifically we need {{StreamExecutionEnvironment.readFile/readTextFile}} to be 
able to read a file for a specified {{N}} times, but currently it only supports 
reading file once.

We've implemented this internally. Would be good to get it back to the 
community version. This jira is to add support for the feature. 

Plan:

add a new processing mode as PROCESSING_N_TIMES, and add additional parameter 
{{numTimes}} for {{StreamExecutionEnvironment.readFile/readTextFile}}
