--------------------------------------
Assignee: Nikolay Izhikov (was: SuryaTeja Duggi)
> Allow "bytes" type to generated a ByteBuffer rather than byte arrays
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-8584
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8584
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Reporter: Guozhang Wang
> Assignee: Nikolay Izhikov
> Priority: Major
> Labels: newbie
>
> Right now in the RPC definition, type {{bytes}} would be translated into
> {{byte[]}} in generated Java code. However, for some requests like
> ProduceRequest#partitionData, the underlying type would better be a
> ByteBuffer rather than a byte array.
> One proposal is to add an additional boolean tag {{useByteBuffer}} for
> {{bytes}} type, which by default is false; when set to {{true}} set the
> corresponding field to generate {{ByteBuffer}} instead of {{[]byte}}.
