Github user fanyon commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3766 The new API should in a new class, such as FlinkKafkaPartitioner. For the older KafkaPartitioner implementation, it will be delegated by FlinkKafkaAdpterPartitioner extends FlinkKafkaPartitioner, in which contains defaultTopicId/partitions and KafkaPartitioner delegate, and map the new api to the current one in terms. Of course, as it is now, default topic's partitions will be used for the diffrent target topics in FlinkKafkaAdpterPartitioner.
