Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-1553:
--------------------------------
Yes, that's the behavior of the old producer. We are changing that behavior in
the new producer.
> TopicMetadataResponse.brokers not read in scala producer?

> Key: KAFKA-1553
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1553
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: producer
> Affects Versions: 0.8.2
> Reporter: Nicolae Marasoiu
> Assignee: Jun Rao
>
> I searched again and I do think that topicMetadataResponse.brokers is not
> read in Scala Producer, or I have not found where it is. (In the java
> producer it does seem used on the other hand).
> The producer seems to only parse its static configuration (properties file on
> key metadata.broker.list on disk stating initial broker list), and cache it
> in BrokerPartitionInfo. It never updates that broker list cache when it
> receives a metadata response!
> It really seems that only that statically configured metadata.broker.list is
> ever queried for metadata, not only initially but at any time e.g. this list
> is never refreshed with the brokers listed in the topic metadata response.
