It would be nice if fetching partition information for the > default topic would be delayed until the moment a topic is actually used. > Cause: {{FlinkKafkaProducerBase.open}} fetches partition information for the > default topic. > In addition, it would be nice if we could signal that the defaultTopic is not > needed by passing {{null}}. Currently, a value for the defaultTopic is > required. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
