Jason Rosenberg created KAFKA-1101: -------------------------------------- Summary: Need better java api for embedding kafkaserver in a java container app Key: KAFKA-1101 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1101 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Jason Rosenberg
We embed the KafkaServer inside a java service container framework, which makes it easy to deploy and monitor within our infrastructure. When upgrading to kafka 0.8 from 0.7.2, I ran into an issue with not being able to pass the needed constructor arg (SystemTime), since there doesn't appear to be an easy way to instantiate that from java. So, I ended up with this janky solution using SystemTime$.MODULE$. Could a default constructor be added which assumes a default SystemTime, rather than requiring that here? Note, I need to construct a KafkaServer directly, since I need to manage the lifecycle more directly than can be done with KafkaServerStartable. {code} // Need to do janky scala MODULE$ dereferencing, in order to get a default value in ctor server = new kafka.server.KafkaServer(kafkaConfig, SystemTime$.MODULE$); server.startup(); {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
