Shailesh Panwar created KAFKA-9494: -------------------------------------- Summary: Include data type of the config in ConfigEntry Key: KAFKA-9494 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9494 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: clients, core Reporter: Shailesh Panwar
Why this request? To provide better validation. Including the data type can significantly improve the validation on client side (be it web or cli or any other client). In the absence of `type` the only way to know if the user specified value is correct is to make an `alter` call and check if there is no error. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
