Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-1660: ---------------------------------- Gotcha, so if I understand close(time) is effectively tryClose(time) and attempts to close and then gives up if it can't, and abort is effectively forceClose() and forcefully kills the I/O thread. > Ability to call close() with a timeout on the Java Kafka Producer. > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1660 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1660 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: clients, producer > Affects Versions: 0.8.2 > Reporter: Andrew Stein > Assignee: Jun Rao > Fix For: 0.8.2 > > > I would like the ability to call {{close}} with a timeout on the Java > Client's KafkaProducer. > h6. Workaround > Currently, it is possible to ensure that {{close}} will return quickly by > first doing a {{future.get(timeout)}} on the last future produced on each > partition, but this means that the user has to define the partitions up front > at the time of {{send}} and track the returned {{future}}'s -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
