apache kafka throwing an exception for scala

I am trying to compile and run a simple kafka code that is a sample from Aapche.When compiling I am getting the following exception, even after adding all the lib files for scala (i guess).

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at scala.Predef$.Integer2int(Predef.scala:303)
at kafka.client.ClientUtils$$anonfun$parseBrokerList$1.apply(ClientUtils.scala:103)

at kafka.producer.Producer.<init>(Producer.scala:60)
at kafka.javaapi.producer.Producer.<init>(Producer.scala:26)
at kafkaTest.TestProducer.main(TestProducer.java:23)

This is my program:

package kafkaTest;

import java.util.*;

import kafka.javaapi.producer.Producer;
import kafka.producer.KeyedMessage;
import kafka.producer.ProducerConfig;

public class TestProducer {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    // long events = Long.parseLong(args[0]);

    long events = 10l;

    Random rnd = new Random();
    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("metadata.broker.list", "broker1:9092,broker2:9092 ");
    props.put("serializer.class", "kafka.serializer.StringEncoder");
    ***![props.put("partitioner.class", "kafkaTest.SimplePartitioner");][1]***//this is line no 23
    props.put("request.required.acks", "1");
    ProducerConfig config = new ProducerConfig(props);
    Producer<String, String> producer = new Producer<String, String>(config);

      for (long nEvents = 0; nEvents < events; nEvents++) { long runtime =
      new Date().getTime(); String ip = "192.168.2.1" + rnd.nextInt(255);
      String msg = runtime + ",www.example.com," + ip; KeyedMessage<String,
      String> data = new KeyedMessage<String, String>("page_visits", ip,
      msg); producer.send(data); }

    producer.close();
}
}

The attached is the screen shot of library files. Please let me know the cause of error/exception.

Edit: this is SimplePartitioner.java

package kafkaTest;

import kafka.producer.Partitioner;
import kafka.utils.VerifiableProperties;

public class SimplePartitioner implements Partitioner {
public SimplePartitioner(VerifiableProperties props) {
}

public int partition(Object key, int a_numPartitions) {
    int partition = 0;
    String stringKey = (String) key;
    int offset = stringKey.lastIndexOf('.');
    if (offset > 0) {
        partition = Integer.parseInt(stringKey.substring(offset + 1))
                % a_numPartitions;
    }
    return partition;
}
}

I also got this error when metadata.broker.list has a broker with no port number.

There's a space at the end of your broker list :

props.put("metadata.broker.list", "broker1:9092,broker2:9092 ");

Remove it and it should work fine then :

props.put("metadata.broker.list", "broker1:9092,broker2:9092");
