-------------------------------------
Summary: ConsumerConsole : uselss --new-consumer option
Key: KAFKA-5588
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5588
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Paolo Patierno
Assignee: Paolo Patierno
Priority: Minor
Hi,
it seems to me that the --new-consumer option on the ConsoleConsumer is useless.
The useOldConsumer var is related to specify --zookeeper on the command line
but then the ----bootstrap-server option (or the --new-consumer) can't be used.
If you use --bootstrap-server option then the new consumer is used
automatically so no need for --new-consumer.
It turns out the using the old or new consumer is just related on using
--zookeeper or --bootstrap-server option (which can't be used together, so I
can't use new consumer connecting to zookeeper).
I'm going to remove the --new-consumer option from the tool.
Thanks,
Paolo.
