[jira] [Created] (FLINK-1034) Inconsistent naming of DataSet reduceGroup and GroupReduceFunction

Shang Yuanchun (Jira)

----------------------------------

             Summary: Inconsistent naming of DataSet reduceGroup and GroupReduceFunction
                 Key: FLINK-1034
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1034
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Java API
            Reporter: Ufuk Celebi
            Priority: Trivial


I don't know if it is on purpose or not, but I found it to be inconsistent and sometimes also confusing:

Why not

{code:java}
input.groupReduce(new GroupReduceFunction() {...})
{code}

instead of the current

{code:java}
input.reduceGroup(new GroupReduceFunction() {...})
{code}

I think it's the same line of thinking, which results in overriding a {{reduce}} method in {{GroupReduceFunction}} instead of a {{groupReduce}} method.

Is there a nice way to unify this?
