Ewen Cheslack-Postava commented on KAFKA-3856: ---------------------------------------------- [~mjsax] 6mo seems long enough. I'll reassign to you, but if [~jeyhunkarimov] wants to chime back in and take over he can just respond and we'll figure out how to proceed. > Move inner classes accessible only functions in TopologyBuilder out of public > APIs > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-3856 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3856 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: streams > Reporter: Guozhang Wang > Assignee: Jeyhun Karimov > Labels: api > > In {{TopologyBuilder}} there are a couple of public functions that are > actually only used in the internal classes such as StreamThread and > StreamPartitionAssignor, and some accessible only in high-level DSL inner > classes, examples include {{addInternalTopic}}, {{sourceGroups}} and > {{copartitionGroups}}, etc. But they are still listed in Javadocs since this > class is part of public APIs. > We should think about moving them out of the public functions. Unfortunately > there is no "friend" access mode as in C++, so we need to think of another > way. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
