Kurt Young commented on FLINK-13943:
------------------------------------
One possible solution is we can return a Iterator<Row> for such API.
And user will have different experience when he iterates the iterator. In batch
mode, it will be evaluated eagerly, and user can iterate all elements in one
loop. But in streaming mode, the loop on the iterator might be infinite, and
can finish if job stops.
> Provide api to convert flink table to java List

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Table SQL / API
> Reporter: Jeff Zhang
> Priority: Major
>
> It would be nice to convert flink table to java List so that I can do other
> data manipulation in client side after execution flink job. For flink
> planner, I can convert flink table to DataSet and use DataSet#collect, but
> for blink planner, there's no such api.
