Travis Bischel commented on KAFKA-9494: --------------------------------------- It may be beneficial to update the KIP to avoid mentioning IncludeType in the request, since that is no longer a thing. > Include data type of the config in ConfigEntry > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-9494 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9494 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: clients, core > Reporter: Shailesh Panwar > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.6.0 > > > Why this request? > To provide better validation. Including the data type can significantly > improve the validation on client side (be it web or cli or any other client). > In the absence of `type` the only way to know if the user specified value is > correct is to make an `alter` call and check if there is no error. > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
