Hello,
as documentation says, the KafkaProducer.send() method is asynchronous and it
just returns immediately.I found out that it's not so true when the Kafka
server it's trying to connect isn't online.Of course it happens only on the
first send() method invocation. It means that if the Kafka server isn't
reachable when my application starts for the first time, the send() method
isn't so asynchronous but it blocks.I know that it's trying to connect to the
Kafka server but why it doesn't save the message into the buffer and returns
immediately ?Is it a behavior or a bug ?
Thanks,Paolo
