Jason Gustafson commented on KAFKA-3006:
----------------------------------------
As a user, I would appreciate being able to pass any collection type. It
definitely seems reasonable to have methods for both arrays and collections,
for example. I do agree that it's a little weird supporting both
subscribe(Collection) and subscribe(List) though...
> Make collection default container type for sequences in the consumer API

> Key: KAFKA-3006
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3006
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: clients
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
> Reporter: Pierre-Yves Ritschard
> Labels: patch
>
> The KafkaConsumer API has some annoying inconsistencies in the usage of
> collection types. For example, subscribe() takes a list, but subscription()
> returns a set. Similarly for assign() and assignment(). We also have pause()
> , seekToBeginning(), seekToEnd(), and resume() which annoyingly use a
> variable argument array, which means you have to copy the result of
> assignment() to an array if you want to pause all assigned partitions. We can
> solve these issues by adding the following variants:
> {code}
> void subscribe(Collection<String> topics);
> void subscribe(Collection<String> topics, ConsumerRebalanceListener);
> void assign(Collection<TopicPartition> partitions);
> void pause(Collection<TopicPartition> partitions);
> void resume(Collection<TopicPartition> partitions);
> void seekToBeginning(Collection<TopicPartition>);
> void seekToEnd(Collection<TopicPartition>);
> {code}
> This issues supersedes KAFKA-2991
