Get kafka connection status

[yoel g]

Hey,

I want to create a monitor in my code which sample the Kafka connection and updates a file according to connection status (connected\disconnected).

Unfortunately, I couldn't find any field in the "ConsumerConnector" class or any other class which indicates what is the status of the connection. (for example: how can I determine if the process called ConsumerConnector.shutdown() ?)

Basically I need only to know if we are connected to Kafka or not.

If someone has an easy way for implementing such thing I'll appreciate it.

thanks!!

I forgot to mention that I'm using JAVA with the 0.8.1.1 kafka version library.

I don't have much direct experience w/ the java client; but it is an officially supported client, so you might also try sending a note to us...@kafka.apache.org
