# Description ## Cause - The batching logic in Camel-Kafka has a critical issue where records fetched in the current Kafka poll are skipped if the hasExpiredRecords method triggers processing due to the batchingIntervalMs condition. - These newly fetched records are not added to the exchangeList, and Kafka's polling behavior advances the offset, causing these records to be lost. - This results in data loss as unprocessed messages are neither processed nor retried in subsequent iterations. ## Fix ### Improved Timeout Handling: - Added logic to restart the timeoutWatch timer after processing expired batches. This ensures that the timeout is recalculated for subsequent records. ### Enhanced Record Addition Logic: - Introduced a clear separation between handling expired records and adding new records to the batch. This ensures that new records are always processed after handling any expiration. ### Batch Processing Adjustments: - Restarted the timeoutWatch timer after processing a batch when the maximum poll records limit is reached. This ensures accurate timing for subsequent batches. # Target - [ ] I checked that the commit is targeting the correct branch (Camel 4 uses the `main` branch) # Tracking - [ ] If this is a large change, bug fix, or code improvement, I checked there is a [JIRA issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-22150) filed for the change (usually before you start working on it). <!-- # *Note*: trivial changes like, typos, minor documentation fixes and other small items do not require a JIRA issue. In this case your pull request should address just this issue, without pulling in other changes. --> # Apache Camel coding standards and style - [ ] I checked that each commit in the pull request has a meaningful subject line and body. <!-- If you're unsure, you can format the pull request title like `[CAMEL-22150] Fixes bug in camel-file component`, where you replace `CAMEL-XXX` with the appropriate JIRA issue. --> - [ ] I have run `mvn clean install -DskipTests` locally from root folder and I have committed all auto-generated changes. <!-- You can run the aforementioned command in your module so that the build auto-formats your code. This will also be verified as part of the checks and your PR may be rejected if if there are uncommited changes after running `mvn clean install -DskipTests`.
