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).

> 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}
