[PR] [KafkaIO] Remove build support for Kafka clients before 3.9.2 [beam]

sjvanrossum opened a new pull request, #39284:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/39284

   Remove build support for legacy Kafka clients. The Kafka protocol implementation in Kafka client version 3.9.2 still allows users to connect to legacy Kafka brokers. See [KIP-896](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/spaces/KAFKA/pages/235838251/KIP-896+Remove+old+client+protocol+API+versions+in+Kafka+4.0) for details on protocol compatibility.
   
   This PR was split from #36834 and enables opportunities to improve KafkaIO performance by leveraging new client features.

Re: [PR] [KafkaIO] Remove build support for Kafka clients before 3.9.2 [beam]

Posted by "gemini-code-assist[bot] (via GitHub)" <gi...@apache.org>.
gemini-code-assist[bot] commented on PR #39284:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/39284#issuecomment-4937750730

   ## Summary of Changes
   
   Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist[^1]! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
   
   This pull request modernizes the KafkaIO module by standardizing on Kafka client version 3.9.2. By removing support for older client versions, the project reduces maintenance overhead and enables the adoption of newer Kafka features. The changes involve updating Gradle build configurations, removing deprecated sub-projects, and adjusting test infrastructure to align with the updated Kafka server APIs.
   
   ### Highlights
   
   * **Kafka Client Upgrade**: Upgraded the Kafka client version to 3.9.2 across the project, removing support for older legacy versions.
   * **Build Configuration Cleanup**: Removed legacy Kafka version build modules and updated build dependencies to use the new Kafka 3.9.2 artifacts.
   * **Code Refactoring**: Updated internal Kafka test utilities to accommodate API changes in Kafka 3.9.2, specifically replacing KafkaServerStartable with KafkaServer.

Review Comment:
   > Using Scala compiler-generated default argument methods (like $lessinit$greater$default$2()) directly in Java is fragile and highly discouraged.
   
   Needs citation?
   
   Jokes aside, that last argument is supposed to be a `Boolean` so this is not exactly the right suggestion.
   I don't feel strongly about this, Kafka itself instantiates `KafkaServer` as follows in main:
   ```scala
   new KafkaServer(
     config,
     Time.SYSTEM,
     threadNamePrefix = None,
     enableForwarding = enableApiForwarding(config)
   )
   ```
   
   Other than readability I don't see a good reason not to use the generated methods to access default arguments.
   If the signature were to change due to argument reordering as mentioned, then the suggested change would break at compile time whereas the generated methods would return the expected type because their definition depends on the signature definition itself.

Review Comment:
   ![medium](https://www.gstatic.com/codereviewagent/medium-priority.svg)
   
   Using Scala compiler-generated default argument methods (like `$lessinit$greater$default$2()`) directly in Java is fragile and highly discouraged. These synthetic methods are internal implementation details of the Scala compiler and can change across Scala compiler versions or if the constructor parameters are reordered/modified in future Kafka releases.
   
   Instead, pass explicit, standard Scala/Java instances such as `org.apache.kafka.common.utils.Time.SYSTEM`, `scala.Option.empty()`, and `scala.collection.immutable.List$.MODULE$.empty()`.

       KafkaServer server =
           new KafkaServer(

     enableForwarding = enableApiForwarding(config)
   )
   ```
   
   Other than readability I don't see a good reason not to use the generated methods to access default arguments.
   If the signature were to change due to argument reordering as mentioned, then the suggested change would break at compile time whereas the generated methods would return the expected type because their definition depends on the signature definition itself.
