[jira] [Commented] (KAFKA-771) NPE in handleOffsetCommitRequest

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-771?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13584996#comment-13584996 ] 

David Arthur commented on KAFKA-771:
------------------------------------

Isn't there a more "Scala-y" way to do this sort of thing? Perhaps if ApiUtils#readShortString returned Option(String) instead of just String? OffsetMetadataAndError would need to do the same thing. This would be a large refactoring due to the ubiquity of readShortString
