Jiangjie Qin created KAFKA-2120: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add a request timeout to NetworkClient Key: KAFKA-2120 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2120 Project: Kafka Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Jiangjie Qin
Currently NetworkClient does not have a timeout setting for requests. So if no response is received for a request due to reasons such as broker is down, the request will never be completed. Request timeout will also be used as implicit timeout for some methods such as KafkaProducer.flush() and kafkaProducer.close(). KIP-19 is created for this public interface change. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-19+-+Add+a+request+timeout+to+NetworkClient -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
