------------------------------------
Summary: Modify Unstable annotations in Streams API
Key: KAFKA-5350
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5350
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: streams
Reporter: Guozhang Wang
Assignee: Guozhang Wang
Fix For: 0.11.0.0
As discussed in the email thread:
https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@kafka.apache.org/msg72581.html
We are going to make the following changes to the Streams API compatibility
annotations:
1. For "o.a.k.streams.errors" and "o.a.k.streams.state" packages: remove the
annotations except `Stores`.
2. For "o.a.k.streams.kstream": remove the annotations except "KStream",
"KTable", "GroupedKStream", "GroupedKTable", "GlobalKTable" and
"KStreamBuilder".
3. For all the other public classes, including "o.a.k.streams.processor",
change the annotation to "Evolving", which means "we might break compatibility
at minor releases (i.e. 0.12.x, 0.13.x, 1.0.x etc) only".
The ultimate goal is to make sure we won't break anything going forward, hence
in the future we should remove all the annotations to make that clear. The
above changes in 0.11.0.0 is to give us some "buffer time" in case there are
some major API change proposals after the release.
