psisoyev opened a new issue #8721:
URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/8721
**Describe the bug**
Whenever you create a new `Reader` with `startMessageId` set to `latest` and
`startMessageIdInclusive`, `hasMessageAvailable` will be always `true` even if
the topic is freshly created without any messages inside.
**To Reproduce**
```
client.newReader()
.topic("persistent://public/default/" + UUID.randomUUID().toString)
.startMessageId(MessageId.latest)
.startMessageIdInclusive()
.create()
.hasMessageAvailable
```
Create a new `Reader` for a new topic, set the settings accordingly, call
`hasMessageAvailable` and it will be always `true`.
**Expected behavior**
As there are no messages in the topic, I would expect to receive `false` as
the response.
**Additional context**
I'm using the latest Java client, version 2.6.2
