--------------------------------
Summary: Misleading behaviour of OffsetSpec.latest()
Key: KAFKA-13154
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13154
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: clients
Affects Versions: 2.5.1
Reporter: Gabi Pi.
When using `OffsetSpec.latest()` to get latest offsets per partition on topic,
the return result represents count of offsets in topic and not the latest
offset.
For example:
* For empty topic, the latest offset will be 0 (instead of -1, similar to
`OffsetSpec.forTimestamp` method)
* For topic with 1 message per partition, the latest returned offset will be 1
(instead of 0)
The method described in the docs in the following way:
_Used to retrieve the latest offset of a partition_
According to this description, I think that the current behaviour is misleading.
