             Summary: Fail function won’t be called if msgId was not entered in emmit 
                 Key: STORM-3717
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-3717
             Project: Apache Storm
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Nadav Ashkenazi


Hey, 

When I tried to use your technology, I tried to implement fail method on Spout (implementing BaseRichBolt), on the spout I emitted without msgId and the fail function was not even called even though I implemented it.

I was stuck on this for around 7 hours trying to figure why my code doesn’t reach fail.

 

I think the current flow is not intuitive, I think default msgId (-1 or something) for msg without msgId or even a warning or exception is better than the current flow.

 

I would like to hear your opinion about that if you still support this flow about why 

you prefer to implement like that.

 

thank you!:)
