ASF GitHub Bot commented on STORM-512: -------------------------------------- Github user revans2 commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/275#issuecomment-63349586 OK I am wrong. When I tried to compile with this change the following tests failed. ``` Failed tests: shouldEmitSomethingIfTickTupleIsReceived(storm.starter.bolt.IntermediateRankingsBoltTest): Index: 0, Size: 0 shouldEmitNothingIfNoObjectHasBeenCountedYetAndTickTupleIsReceived(storm.starter.bolt.RollingCountBoltTest): shouldEmitSomethingIfAtLeastOneObjectWasCountedAndTickTupleIsReceived(storm.starter.bolt.RollingCountBoltTest): shouldEmitSomethingIfTickTupleIsReceived(storm.starter.bolt.TotalRankingsBoltTest) ``` It looks like to me that the tick is being used somewhere else. Why exactly do we not want the ticks? > KafkaBolt doesn't handle ticks properly > --------------------------------------- > > Key: STORM-512 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-512 > Project: Apache Storm > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Niels Basjes > > I found that when using the KafkaBolt the tick tuples are not handled > properly. They should be ignored and the reality is that they are not. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
