> Document casting trick for Avro value serializer in KafkaIO
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: BEAM-13854
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-13854
>             Project: Beam
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: io-java-kafka
>    Affects Versions: 2.36.0
>            Reporter: Matt Casters
>            Assignee: Matt Casters
>            Priority: P3
>              Labels: pull-request-available
>             Fix For: 2.38.0
>
>          Time Spent: 1h 10m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Consider we want to write Avro values to Kafka with for example the following 
> code:
> {code:java}
> KafkaIO.Write<String, GenericRecord> stringsToKafka =
>  KafkaIO.<String, GenericRecord>write()
>   .withBootstrapServers(bootstrapServers)
>   .withTopic(topic)
>   .withKeySerializer(StringSerializer.class)
>   .withValueSerializer(KafkaAvroSerializer.class)
>   .withProducerConfigUpdates(producerConfigUpdates);{code}
>  The KafkaAvroSerializer.class argument can't be passed as would normally be 
> the case in Producer option: 
> value.serializer=io.confluent.kafka.serializers.KafkaAvroSerializer
> So the question then is which class should we pass or how to cast. IntelliJ 
> IDEA suggests a cast which doesn't compile.
> In the end the answer is simply:
> {code:java}
>   .withValueSerializer((Class)KafkaAvroSerializer.class) {code}
> I think it's worth documenting this little trick more clearly in the Javadoc 
> of KafkaIO to prevent others from bumping into the same issue.
