-----------------------------------
Summary: Consider auto-generating Streams binary protocol messages
Key: KAFKA-8868
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8868
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: streams
Reporter: John Roesler
Assignee: John Roesler
Rather than maintain hand coded protocol serialization code, Streams could use
the same code-generation framework as Clients/Core.
There isn't a perfect match, since the code generation framework includes an
assumption that you're generating "protocol messages", rather than just
arbitrary blobs, but I think it's close enough to justify using it, and
improving it over time.
Using the code generation allows us to drop a lot of detail-oriented, brittle,
and hard-to-maintain serialization logic in favor of a schema spec.
