Stevo Slavic commented on KAFKA-2120: ------------------------------------- If this is considered as must have for Kafka 0.8.3, please consider setting "Fix Version" to 0.8.3. Related issue, KAFKA-1788 is fixed only for 0.8.3. > Add a request timeout to NetworkClient > -------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2120 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2120 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Jiangjie Qin > Assignee: Mayuresh Gharat > Attachments: KAFKA-2120.patch, KAFKA-2120_2015-07-27_15:31:19.patch, > KAFKA-2120_2015-07-29_15:57:02.patch > > > Currently NetworkClient does not have a timeout setting for requests. So if > no response is received for a request due to reasons such as broker is down, > the request will never be completed. > Request timeout will also be used as implicit timeout for some methods such > as KafkaProducer.flush() and kafkaProducer.close(). > KIP-19 is created for this public interface change. > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-19+-+Add+a+request+timeout+to+NetworkClient -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
