Jason Rosenberg commented on KAFKA-1101: ---------------------------------------- The other issue with KafkaServerStartable is that it calls shutdown() if the startup fails, but then there can be non-daemon threads left running which prevent a clean shutdown. I think I found this, and filed KAFKA-589 a while back (which was one of the main reason I moved away from using KafkaServerStartable). > 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)
