Ewen Cheslack-Postava commented on KAFKA-2020: ---------------------------------------------- Yes, exactly. > I expect ReplicaNotAvailableException to have proper Javadocs > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2020 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2020 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: consumer > Reporter: Chris Riccomini > Assignee: Neha Narkhede > > It looks like ReplicaNotAvailableException was copy and pasted from > LeaderNotAvailable exception. The Javadocs were never changed. This means > that users think that ReplicaNotAvailableException signifies leaders are not > available. This is very different from, "I can ignore this exception," which > is what the Kafka protocol docs say to do with ReplicaNotAvailableException. > Related: what's the point of ReplicaNotAvailableException if it's supposed to > be ignored? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
