Summary: Improve Util classes Key: KAFKA-5772 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5772 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: clients Reporter: Matthias Weßendorf Utils with static methods should not be instantiated, hence we should improve them by marking the classes final and adding a private constructor as well. In addition this is consistent w/ a few of the existing Util classes, such as ByteUtils, see: https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/d345d53e4e5e4f74707e2521aa635b93ba3f1e7b/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/common/utils/ByteUtils.java#L29-L31 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
