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

> ConsumerConfig and ProducerConfig do "work" in the Constructor
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-1040
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1040
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: config, consumer, producer
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Environment: Java 1.7
> Linux Mint 14 (64bit)
> Reporter: Sharmarke Aden
> Assignee: Neha Narkhede
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: config
> Fix For: 0.8.1
>
>
> It appears that validation of configuration properties is performed in the
> ConsumerConfig and ProducerConfig constructors. This is generally bad
> practice as it couples object construction and validation. It also makes it
> difficult to mock these objects in unit tests.
> Ideally validation of the configuration properties should be separated from
> object construction and initiated by those that rely/use these config objects.
