Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-1576: ------------------------------------- Hey [~sriharsha], any particular reason you assigned this to yourself? I'm working on this Jira... > Make "deleteTopic" a bit more user friendly > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1576 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1576 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Gwen Shapira > Assignee: Sriharsha Chintalapani > Labels: newbie > Fix For: 0.8.2 > > > Current implementation of deleteTopic has few usability issues: > 1. Successful deleteTopic doesn't give the user any feedback that anything > happened > 2. Attempting to delete a topic twice leads to a "node exists" exception from > zkclient. We should catch this and send "Topic is being deleted" error to the > user. > 3. Listing topics may show deleted topics (while the brokers are still > cleaning up), it will be nice to mark them as deleted. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
