--------------------------------------------
Summary: Exceptions in SourceTask.commit() methods should cause
task to stop and report failed state
Key: KAFKA-3734
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3734
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: KafkaConnect
Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0
Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/1402 is catching exceptions and at least
logging something useful, but we can't really ignore this type of exception. It
implies something went wrong committing the data and we don't know if that will
continue to happen indefinitely (and anything that is ok should be caught and
handled by the connector).
This callback happens inside a Producer callback, so propagating the exception
is not necessarily trivial.
