Ismael Juma updated KAFKA-6923:
-------------------------------
Summary: Consolidate ExtendedSerializer/Serializer and
ExtendedDeserializer/Deserializer (was: Deprecate
ExtendedSerializer/Serializer and ExtendedDeserializer/Deserializer)
> Consolidate ExtendedSerializer/Serializer and
> ExtendedDeserializer/Deserializer
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-6923
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6923
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: clients
> Reporter: Ismael Juma
> Priority: Major
> Labels: needs-kip
> Fix For: 2.1.0
>
>
> The Javadoc of ExtendedDeserializer states:
> {code}
> * Prefer {@link Deserializer} if access to the headers is not required. Once
> Kafka drops support for Java 7, the
> * {@code deserialize()} method introduced by this interface will be added to
> Deserializer with a default implementation
> * so that backwards compatibility is maintained. This interface may be
> deprecated once that happens.
> {code}
> Since we have dropped Java 7 support, we should figure out how to do this.
> There are compatibility implications, so a KIP is needed.
