             Summary: Additional steps needed for the Java quickstart guide
                 Key: FLINK-5087
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5087
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Theodore Vasiloudis
            Priority: Minor


While the quickstart guide indicates that you should be able to just run the 
examples
from the Maven archetype that was not the case for me, what I got instead was
ClassNotFound exceptions because the default run configuration does not pull in
the dependencies as it should.

What I needed to do to get the examples to run from within the IDE was:

1) In project structure, add a new module say "mainRunner"
2) In mainRunner's dependencies add the main module (say "quickstart") as a 
module depency.
3) In mainRunner's dependencies add the rest of the project library 
dependencies.
4) In the run configuration for the example change the "Use claspath of module" 
to mainRunner from quickstart.

I think we should either include the instructions in the docs, or if possible 
change the Java quickstart archetype to include the extra module.
The Scala quickstart has the mainRunner module already, and the appropriate 
instructions
on how to run from within IDEA are in the docs.
