>    Affects Versions: 0.8.0
>            Reporter: Jason Rosenberg
>
> This issue came out of a discussion on the user mailing list (not something I experienced directly).
> Bob Cotton reported:
> "During the implementation of a custom Encoder/Decoder we noticed that
> should the Decoder throw an exception, the KafkaStream that it is in use
> becomes invalid.
> Searching the mailing list indicates that the only way to recover from an
> invalid stream is to shutdown the whole high-level consumer and restart.
> Is there a better way to recover from this?
> Thanks for the responsiveness on the mailing list."
> ......
> And then Neha responded:
> "This is a bug. Ideally, we should allow restarting the consumer
> streams when they encounter an error.
> Can you file a JIRA ?
> Thanks,
> Neha"
