I read some parts about the `stoppingOffsetsInitializer`. Actually the `eofRecordEvaluator` does the same job as `stoppingOffsetsInitializer`. We want to use both `eofRecordEvaluator` and `stoppingOffsetsInitializer` to decide when to stop reading and support to use them in one same source together. But I find the method `KafkaSourceBuilder<OUT> setUnbounded(OffsetsInitializer stoppingOffsetsInitializer)` in builder, which supports to set a `stoppingOffsetsInitializer` in an unbounded source. I want to keep the same behavior as `stoppingOffsetsInitializer` and do not add the limitation for `eofRecordEvaluator`. What do you think? Looking forward to your option. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
