There's an issue raised in Quarkus repo[1], where Apache Kafka (embedded) no longer starts on Java 14. From what I can see the root cause is this[2].
JDK-8225499[3] changed the implementation (and even the javadoc) of the InetSocketAddress.toString() which now reads[4]: "... If the address is unresolved, <unresolved> is displayed in place of the address literal. " Previously, until as recent as Java 13[5], it used to be: "... If the address is unresolved then the part before the colon will only contain the hostname. " So this looks like an intentional(?) breakage in that toString() API semantics? I do see that it did make it to the release notes of this version, but given how conservative Java has been in terms of breaking changes, is this change too quick in introducing such a breaking change? By the way, keeping aside the breaking nature of this change, the current javadoc, I think doesn't reflect what the current implementation returns for unresolved addresses. The javadoc states: "If the address is unresolved, |<unresolved>| is displayed in place of the address literal." Note, the "in place of the address literal" part. However, in the current implementation[6], it returns something like - "localhost/<unresolved>:2182". So it doesn't just display the "<unresolved>" literal in the address part but suffixes it to the address part. Should that be clarified?
