[FLINK-6079] [kafka] Provide meaningful error message if TopicPartitions are null This PR verifies that the List of topicPartitions returned by the `FlinKKafkaConsumerBase#getKafkaPartitions()` isn't null. I'm assuming this only happens when a sub-class isn't implemented correctly, as all implementations pass a non-null list. (Even the dummies pass an empty list) You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/zentol/flink 6079_kafka_bull Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3685.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #3685 ---- commit 29d59776e2fdd626be0a9315aa79f5c08a25bb58 Author: zentol <ches...@apache.org> Date: 2017-04-06T09:55:29Z [FLINK-6079] [kafka] Provide meaningful error message if TopicPartitions are null ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
