----------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Grant Henke)
> Define standard exceptions for the Authorizer interface
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-3507
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3507
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
> Reporter: Grant Henke
> Priority: Major
>
> The Authorizer does not define an standard exceptions that can be used by an
> implementer. This means that any exception thrown on the broker, as a part of
> KAFKA-3266, can only be passed back to the client as an UnknownException(-1)
> making error handling difficult. A set of standard exceptions covering most
> foreseeable exceptions should be defined as a part of the interface and used
> in the default SimpleAclAuthorizer.
> This work will require a small KIP.
