> Improve Streams close timeout semantics
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-7477
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7477
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: streams
> Reporter: John Roesler
> Assignee: Nikolay Izhikov
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: newbie
>
> See [https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/5682#discussion_r221473451]
> The current timeout semantics are a little "magical":
> * 0 means to block forever
> * negative numbers cause the close to complete immediately without checking
> the state
> I think this would make more sense:
> * reject negative numbers
> * make 0 just signal and return immediately (after checking the state once)
> * if I want to wait "forever", I can use {{ofYears(1)}} or
> {{ofMillis(Long.MAX_VALUE)}} or some other intuitively "long enough to be
> forever" value instead of a magic value.
