> @dajac Nice improvement. Some minor comments are left. Please take a look. > > 1. https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/clients/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/clients/admin/KafkaAdminClient.java#L1893 also check the existence of topic. Will it become a redundant check after we merge this PR? > 2. Should we apply this readable error message to other APIs? `deleteTopics`, for example. @chia7712 Thanks for your comment. To answer your questions: 1. No, it is not. That one throws an exception if the topic was not returned at all by the broker. 2. That's a good question... I do agree that it is a bit weird to do this only in one case. Thinking about this, I think that it might be better to keep the error generic in the admin client and to handle it on the calling side instead. I will try this so we can compare. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
