########## streams/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/streams/kstream/internals/KStreamImpl.java: ########## @@ -796,7 +797,6 @@ public <KR> KGroupedStream<KR, V> groupBy(final KeyValueMapper<? super K, ? supe final GroupedInternal<KR, V> groupedInternal = new GroupedInternal<>(grouped); final ProcessorGraphNode<K, V> selectKeyMapNode = internalSelectKey(keySelector, new NamedInternal(groupedInternal.name())); - selectKeyMapNode.keyChangingOperation(true); Review Comment: I did have a closer look. I did mix up this flag, with `repartitionRequired` parameter of `KStreamImpl` below, that we correctly pass in hardcode as `true`. `keyChangingOperation` in contrast is for our "topology optimization / rewriting" step, and it seems we are not using this flag for `groupBy(...)` right now. However, we don't know if we might use it in the future, so I think we should still keep it. So technically, we have a little bit of a "split brain" problem, ie, two code path that do related things independently. Ideally, we would unify both code path to ensure they align. As this is independent of this PR, I would propose to keep this line in this PR. I did file a ticket to track the idea of refactoring, which is an independent piece of work: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18692 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
