Ismael Juma created KAFKA-6923: ---------------------------------- Summary: Deprecate ExtendedSerializer/Serializer and ExtendedDeserializer/Deserializer Key: KAFKA-6923 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6923 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: clients Reporter: Ismael Juma Fix For: 2.1.0
The Javadoc of ExtendedDeserializer states: {code} * Prefer {@link Deserializer} if access to the headers is not required. Once Kafka drops support for Java 7, the * {@code deserialize()} method introduced by this interface will be added to Deserializer with a default implementation * so that backwards compatibility is maintained. This interface may be deprecated once that happens. {code} Since we have dropped Java 7 support, we should figure out how to do this. There are compatibility implications, so a KIP is needed. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
