John Roesler commented on KAFKA-9259:
-------------------------------------
Hi [~omanges], yes, of course!
Although this work doesn't need a KIP, it's probably worth having a discussion
here about the approach before you send a PR, just because it seems like
different folks have different opinions about the best way to implement it.
Can you please also take a look at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9260 for context? And please let us
know any clarifications you might need.
Thanks!,

> suppress() for windowed-Serdes does not work with default serdes
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-9259
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9259
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: streams
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: Matthias J. Sax
> Assignee: Omkar Mestry
> Priority: Major
> Labels: newbie
>
> The suppress() operator either inherits serdes from its upstream operator or
> falls back to default serdes from the config.
> If the upstream operator is an windowed aggregation, the window-aggregation
> operator wraps the user passed-in serde with a window-serde and pushed it
> into suppress() – however, if default serdes are used, the window-aggregation
> operator cannot push anything into suppress(). At runtime, it just creates a
> default serde and wraps it according. For this case, suppress() also falls
> back to default serdes; however, it does not wrap the serde and thus a
> ClassCastException is thrown when the serde is used later.
> suppress() is already aware if the upstream aggregation is time/session
> windowed or not and thus should use this information to wrap default serdes
> accordingly.
> The current workaround for windowed-suppress is to overwrite the default
> serde upstream to suppress(), such that suppress() inherits serdes and does
> not fall back to default serdes.
