> I would like the ability to "abort" the Java Client's KafkaProducer. This includes the stopping the writing of buffered records.
> The motivation for this is described [here|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/kafka-dev/201409.mbox/%3CCAOk4UxB7BJm6HSgLXrR01sksB2dOC3zdt0NHaKHz1EALR6%3DCTQ%40mail.gmail.com%3E].
> A sketch of this method is:
> {code}
> public void abort() {
>         try {
>             ioThread.interrupt();
>             ioThread.stop(new ThreadDeath());
>         } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
>         }
> }
> {code}
> but of course it is preferable to stop the {{ioThread}} by cooperation, rather than use the deprecated {{Thread.stop(new ThreadDeath())}}.
