Matthias J. Sax updated KAFKA-13641:
------------------------------------
Language: scala needs-kip (was: scala)
> Kafka Streams Scala: Add `Option` to `ValueJoiner` parameters
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-13641
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13641
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: streams
> Reporter: Mohammad Yousuf Minhaj Zia
> Priority: Minor
>
> Since `ValueJoiner` right parameter in `leftJoins`, `outerJoins` can be
> nullable, I am wondering if can wrap them around Scala `Option`.
> However, there is also the concern that the left hand side value can be null
> in the case of tombstone messages, in which the `Option` semantics can be
> misleading. I still feel this could be a useful feature in reducing the
> number of `NullPointerExceptions`.
