[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-1525) Provide utils to pass -D parameters to UDFs

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1525?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14318012#comment-14318012 ] 

Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-1525:
-------------------------------------

I think Flink has a much nicer way of passing parameters to functions. This seems very much a Hadoop artifact that they build because there was no better way. Should we really adapt this?

> Hadoop users are used to setting job configuration through "-D" on the command line.
> Right now, Flink users have to manually parse command line arguments and pass them to the methods.
> It would be nice to provide a standard args parser with is taking care of such stuff.
