Hi, so I updated the libs locally, built and re-ran the example with this version and it now worked without any problems.

Unfortunately it seems that in order to use the kafka connector I can only use 0.x versions of Kafka. When connecting to 1.x versions I get stack-overflows and OutOfMemory errors. I did a quick test with updating the kafaka libs from the ancient 0.8.2.2 to 1.1.0 seemed to not break anything ... I'll do some local tests with an updated Kafka client. @vino yang ... have you been working on adding the Annotations to the client? @all others ... does anyone have objections to updating the kafka client libs to 1.1.0? It shouldn't break anything as it should be backward compatible. As we are currently not using anything above the API level of 0.8.2 there should also not be any Exceptions (I don't know of any removed things, which could be a problem).

Both should be optional so just adding the annotation would have no effect (besides a few additional CPU operations). The annotation can be applied to methods or classes (every method then inherits this). I hope that's ok, because implementing this on a parameter Level would make things extremely difficult. @vino yang With this you should be able to provide Kafka version constraints to your code changes. Just tell me if something's missing or needs to be done differently For now this annotation will have no effect as I haven't implemented the Aspect for doing the checks, but I'll start working on that as soon as you have annotated something.

Chris Am 04.03.18, 08:10 schrieb "vino yang" <yanghua1...@gmail.com>: The reason is that Kafka 0.9+ provided a new consumer API which has more features and better performance. Just like Flink's implementation : https://github.com/apache/flink/tree/master/flink-connectors. vinoyang Thanks.
