------------------------------------
Hi [~guozhang],
Sorry about the delay,
What I have seen is that the kafka console consumer and stormkafka consumer
throws error when the broker is not available, where as the Kafka stream
doesn't give any warning or error
According to you is similar behavior observed in case of Kafka consumer,
console consumer? What do you see when you kill the broker when consumer is
still running?
Regards

> When you execute the following scenario the application is always in RUNNING
> state
>
> 1)start kafka
> 2)start app, app connects to kafka and starts processing
> 3)kill kafka(stop docker container)
> 4)the application doesn't give any indication that it's no longer
> connected(Stream State is still RUNNING, and the uncaught exception handler
> isn't invoked)
>
>
> It would be useful if the Stream State had a DISCONNECTED status.
