KAFKA-2358 KafkaConsumer.partitionsFor returns empty list for non-existing
topic
----
> KafkaConsumer.partitionsFor should never return null

> Key: KAFKA-2358
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2358
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.8.3
> Reporter: Stevo Slavic
> Priority: Minor
>
> {{KafkaConsumer.partitionsFor}} method by it's signature returns a
> {{List<PartitionInfo>}}. Problem is that in case (metadata for) topic does
> not exist, current implementation will return null, which is considered a bad
> practice - instead of null it should return empty list.
