> Deprecate DataSink.sortLocalOutput() methods
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-3186
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3186
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: DataSet API
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Fabian Hueske
> Assignee: Suneel Marthi
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> The DataSet API {{DataSink}} offers a method {{sortLocalOutput()}} to sort
> the output before it is handed to the {{OutputFormat}}.
> I propose to deprecate (and eventually remove) this method, because the same
> functionality can be achieved by using {{DataSet.sortPartition()}}.
> {{sortPartition()}} is more generic and has no drawbacks compared to
> {{sortLocalOutput()}}. Removing {{sortLocalOutput()}} would clean up the API
> and remove unnecessary code paths.
