[jira] [Created] (FLINK-15129) Return JobClient instead of JobClient Future from executeAsync()

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

             Summary: Return JobClient instead of JobClient Future from executeAsync()
                 Key: FLINK-15129
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15129
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: API / DataSet, API / DataStream
            Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek


Currently, users have to write this when they want to use the {{JobClient}}:
{code}
CompletableFuture<JobClient> jobClientFuture = env.executeAsync();
JobClient jobClient = jobClientFuture.get();
// or use thenApply/thenCompose etc.
{code}

instead we could always return a {{JobClient}} right away and therefore remove one step for the user.

I don't know if it's always the right choice, but currently we always return an already completed future that contains the {{JobClient}}. In the future we might want to return a future that actually completes at some later point, we would not be able to do this if we directly return a {{JobClient}} and would have to block in {{executeAsync()}}.
