Gabor Gevay commented on FLINK-3702:
------------------------------------
This turned out to be more complicated than I thought, but I'm 80% done. I'll
try to wrap it up in the next few days.
I'm refactoring FieldAccessor, so that it will be created from a method of the
TypeInfos, instead of the static method FieldAccessor.create. This makes it
possible to process the outermost part of a field expression and then recurse
into the specified field's TypeInfo with the rest of the field expression.

> The {{PojoFieldAccessor}} (which is used by {{.sum(String)}} and similar
