Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-3491: ------------------------------------- Very late to the party, but it looks like the issue is still there, so we are still losing events when using the common pattern shown in this JIRA? And the work-around is still to call unsubscribe(), but we are not telling anyone about it? > Issue with consumer close() in finally block with 'enable.auto.commit=true' > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-3491 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3491 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: consumer > Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0, 0.9.0.1 > Reporter: dan norwood > Assignee: Jason Gustafson > Priority: Minor > > imagine you have a run loop that looks like the following: > {code:java} > public void run() { > try { > consumer.subscribe(topics); > while (true) { > ConsumerRecords<K, V> records = consumer.poll(Long.MAX_VALUE); > records.forEach(record -> process(record)); > } > } catch (WakeupException e) { > // ignore, we're closing > } catch (Exception e) { > log.error("Unexpected error", e); > } finally { > consumer.close(); > } > } > {code} > if you run this with 'enable.auto.commit=true' and throw an exception in the > 'process()' method you will still try to commit all the read, but > unprocessed, offsets in the most recent batch. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
