Sean Glover commented on KAFKA-5631: ------------------------------------ Hi [~cumesh]. Are you still planning on working on this issue? If not would it be alright if I assigned it to myself? > Use Jackson for serialising to JSON > ----------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-5631 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5631 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ismael Juma > Assignee: Umesh Chaudhary > Labels: newbie > Fix For: 1.1.0 > > > We currently serialise to JSON via a manually written method `Json.encode`. > The implementation is naive: it does a lot of unnecessary String > concatenation and it doesn't handle escaping well. > KAFKA-1595 switches to Jackson for parsing, so it would make sense to do this > after that one is merged. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
