----------------------------------

             Summary: Exception thrown when Kafka topic is null for FlinkKafkaConsumer
                 Key: FLINK-24259
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-24259
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Connectors / Kafka, kafka
    Affects Versions: 1.14.0
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Mans Singh
             Fix For: 1.15.0


If the topic name is null for the FlinkKafkaConsumer we get an Kafka exception with the message:
{quote}{{Error computing size for field 'topics': Error computing size for field 'name': Missing value for field 'name' which has no default value.}}
{quote}
The KafkaTopicDescriptor can checks that the topic name empty, blank or null and provide more informative message.
