> Avoid forcing reload of `Configuration`
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-2688
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2688
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: security
> Reporter: Ismael Juma
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 0.9.0.0
>
>
> We currently call `Configuration.setConfiguration(null)` from a couple of
> places in our codebase (`Login` and `JaasUtils`) to force `Configuration` to
> be reloaded. If this code is removed, some tests can fail depending on the
> test execution order.
> Ideally we would not need to call `setConfiguration(null)` outside of tests.
> Investigate if this is possible. If not, we should at least ensure that
> reloads are done in a safe way within our codebase (perhaps using a lock).
