>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: API / DataStream
>    Affects Versions: 1.10.0, 1.11.0, 1.12.0
>            Reporter: Dawid Wysakowicz
>            Assignee: Dawid Wysakowicz
>            Priority: Critical
>             Fix For: 1.10.2, 1.12.0, 1.11.2

> Following test fails:
> {code}
> 	@Test
> 	public void testKeyedConnectedStreamsType() {
> 		StreamExecutionEnvironment env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment();
> 		DataStreamSource<Integer> stream1 = env.fromElements(1, 2);
> 		DataStreamSource<Integer> stream2 = env.fromElements(1, 2);
> 		ConnectedStreams<Integer, Integer> connectedStreams = stream1.connect(stream2)
> 			.keyBy(v -> v, v -> v);
> 		KeyedStream<?, ?> firstKeyedInput = (KeyedStream<?, ?>) connectedStreams.getFirstInput();
> 		KeyedStream<?, ?> secondKeyedInput = (KeyedStream<?, ?>) connectedStreams.getSecondInput();
> 		assertThat(firstKeyedInput.getKeyType(), equalTo(Types.INT));
> 		assertThat(secondKeyedInput.getKeyType(), equalTo(Types.INT));
> 	}
> {code}
> The problem is that the wildcard type is evaluated as {{Object}} for lambdas, which in turn produces {{GenericTypeInfo<Object>}} for any KeySelector provided as lambda.
> I suggest changing the method signature to:
> {code}
> 	public <K1, K2> ConnectedStreams<IN1, IN2> keyBy(
> 			KeySelector<IN1, K1> keySelector1,
> 			KeySelector<IN2, K2> keySelector2)
> {code}
> This would be a code compatible change. Might break the compatibility of state backend (would change derived key type info). Nevertheless there is a workaround to use:
> {code}
> 	public <KEY> ConnectedStreams<IN1, IN2> keyBy(
> 			KeySelector<IN1, KEY> keySelector1,
> 			KeySelector<IN2, KEY> keySelector2,
> 			TypeInformation<KEY> keyType)
> {code}
