Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-984:
-------------------------------------
Regarding the second point, I agree with Markus. Distinct is not a grouping
operation, IMO. Although it blows up the DataSet API a bit, I think adding
{{distinct()}} to {{DataSet}} is the better option.
> Distinct operator for POJO DataSets without KeySelector and on
> UnsortedGrouping

> Key: FLINK-984
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-984
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Ufuk Celebi
> Priority: Minor
>
> Two issues regarding the distinct operator:
> - The distinct operator does not support {{distinct()}} with POJO datasets. I
> think it should be possible to implement a reflection based KeySelector which
> selects all public fields as key?
> - All other grouped operators work by {{groupBy(GROUPING).operator(...)}}
> whereas the distinct operator does {{distinct(GROUPING)}}. I think it would
> be more consistent to allow {{groupBy(GROUPING).distinct()}}.
