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

             Summary: Add a NoOpOperator
                 Key: FLINK-4265
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4265
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: DataSet API
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
            Reporter: Greg Hogan
            Assignee: Greg Hogan
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.1.0


One recent feature of Gelly is algorithms which detect duplicated or similar computation which can be shared. My initial implementation could only reuse a {{DataSet}} result. Before committing to Flink this was updated to use a javassist {{ProxyFactory}} allowing configuration to be merged and results to be replaced. There were some issues, as identified in FLINK-4257. With a {{NoOpOperator}} we can remove the use of {{ProxyFactory}} and resolve the identified issues.

This ticket adds a {{NoOpOperator}} which is unwound in {{OperatorTranslation.translate}}. The {{NoOpOperator}} contains a {{DataSet}} which is accessed by a getter and setter.
