---------------------------------------
Summary: TopicMetadataRequest creates topic if it does not exist
Key: KAFKA-2887
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2887
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: clients
Affects Versions: 0.8.2.0
Environment: Centos6, Java 1.7.0_75
Reporter: Andrew Winterman
Priority: Minor
We wired up a probe http endpoint to make TopicMetadataRequests with a possible
topic name. If no topic was found, we expected an empty response. However if we
asked for the same topic twice, it would exist the second time!
I think this is a bug because the purpose of the TopicMetadaRequest is to
provide information about the cluster, not mutate it. I can provide example
code if needed.
