Jonathan Santilli commented on KAFKA-7678:
------------------------------------------

Hello [~guozhang] I can confirm the issue about calling the *.close()* method 
out of a null have been solved.

However, I do not know the reason why that was happening (I did not dig enough 
into the code to understand the reason).

Maybe we can create another Jira to explore it, what do you think?

> Although I have checked the code and the method 
> `*maybeAbortTransactionAndCloseRecordCollector*` in the `*StreamTask*.*java*`

> Should we consider this a bug?
> In my opinion, we could check for the `*null*` possibility at 
> `*RecordCollectorImpl*.*java*` class:

> @Override
> public void close() {
>  log.debug("Closing producer");
>  producer.close();
>  producer = null;
>  checkForException();
> }{noformat}
>  
> Change it for:
>  
> {noformat}
> @Override
> public void close() {
>  log.debug("Closing producer");
>  if ( Objects.nonNull(producer) ) {
>     producer.close();
>     producer = null;
>  }
>  checkForException();
> }{noformat}
>  
> How does that sound?
