This looks like a good way of doing it to make the code compile on Java
versions prior to 8.
Here is a suggestion to give it more speaking error messages:
When you find that the `writeReplace` method returns a `SerializedLambda`,
try to look up that class. If the lookup fails, throw an error saying something
like "User code tries to use lambdas, but framework is running with a Java
version < 8" or so.
> Type Extraction for Lambdas

> Key: FLINK-1062
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1062
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Java API
> Affects Versions: 0.7-incubating
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Assignee: Timo Walther
> Fix For: 0.7-incubating
>
>
> Lambdas currently work only for {{filter}} and {{reduce(a,b)}}, because
> Lambda type extraction is not in place right now.
> We need to extend the type extraction for lambdas to support the other
> functions.
