Apurva Mehta created KAFKA-5052:
-----------------------------------
Summary: We shouldn't pass the underlying exception to
RetriableCommitFailedException when an async offset commit fails.
Key: KAFKA-5052
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5052
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Apurva Mehta
Assignee: Apurva Mehta
This is a follow up to : https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3527
We currently wrap retriable exceptions encountered during offset commits in a
`RetriableOffsetCommitException`. The problem is that today we also pass the
underlying exception on to the user. There isn't a really good reason to do
this, since the user will not handle each individual exception differently:
they will just retry anyway.
We should not pass on the underlying exception. It makes the API simpler, and
also allows us to change things underneath with more flexibility.
