---------------------------------
Summary: Deprecate ConfigDef.ConfigKey constructor from public APIs
Key: KAFKA-16604
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-16604
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sagar Rao
Currently, one can create ConfigKey by either invoking the public constructor
directly and passing it to a ConfigDef object or by invoking the a bunch of
define methods. The 2 ways can get confusing at times. Moreover, it could lead
to errors as was noticed in KAFKA-16592
We should ideally have only 1 way exposed to the users which IMO should be to
create the objects only through the exposed define methods. This ticket is
about marking the public constructor of ConfigKey as Deprecated first and then
making it private eventually.
