- Earlier, we had to add Autowired on KafkaBinderConfigurationProperties constructor as there were some issues with runtime hints generation which caused issues when running an app in native mode. Spring Boot fixed these issues and we can remove this unnecessary Autowired from the constructor. See the following issues from Spring Boot for more details. https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/34507 https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/35564 Resolves https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-stream/issues/2640
