Hi, I was trying to read a simple binary file using SerializedInputFormat as suggested in a different thread, but encounters the following error. I tried to do what the exception suggests, but eventhough createInput() returns a DataSet object I couldn't find how to specify which file to read.
Any help is appreciated. The file I am trying to read is a simple binary file with containing java short values. Is there any example on reading binary files available? Exception in thread "main" org.apache.flink.api.common.InvalidProgramException: The type returned by the input format could not be automatically determined. Please specify the TypeInformation of the produced type explicitly by using the 'createInput(InputFormat, TypeInformation)' method instead.
