> Both {{TableEnvironment.execute()}} and
> {{StreamExecutionEnvironment.execute}} can trigger a Flink table program
> execution. However if you use {{TableEnvironment}} to build a Flink table
> program, you must use {{TableEnvironment.execute()}} to trigger execution,
> because you can’t get the {{StreamExecutionEnvironment}} instance. If you use
> {{StreamTableEnvironment}} to build a Flink table program, you can use both
> to trigger execution. If you convert a table program to a {{DataStream}}
> program (using
> {{StreamExecutionEnvironment.toAppendStream/toRetractStream}}), you also can
> use both to trigger execution. So it’s hard to explain which `execute` method
> should be used.
> To correct current messy trigger point, we propose that: for
> {{TableEnvironment}} and {{StreamTableEnvironment}}, you must use
> {{TableEnvironment.execute()}} to trigger table program execution, once you
> convert the table program to a {{DataStream}} program (through
> {{toAppendStream}} or {{toRetractStream}} method), you must use
> {{StreamExecutionEnvironment.execute}} to trigger the {{DataStream}} program.
