Damian Guy updated KAFKA-3936:
------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Validate user parameters as early as possible
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-3936
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3936
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: streams
> Reporter: Matthias J. Sax
> Assignee: Damian Guy
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: beginner, newbie, starter
>
> Currently, parameters handed in by the user via public API, are not
> validated. For example {{stream.to(null)}} would fail when the underlying
> producer gets instantiated. This result in a stack trace from deep down in
> the library, making it hard to reason about the problem for the user.
> We want to check all given user parameters as early as possible and raise
> corresponding (and helpful!) exceptions to explain users what the problem is,
> and how to fix it. All parameter checks should get unit tested.
