Jakob Homan reassigned KAFKA-367: --------------------------------- Assignee: Eli Reisman > StringEncoder/StringDecoder use platform default character set > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-367 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-367 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Jay Kreps > Assignee: Eli Reisman > Labels: newbie > > StringEncoder and StringDecoder take the platform default character set. This > is bad since the messages they produce are sent off that machine. We should > -- add a new required argument to these that adds the character set and > default to UTF-8 rather than the machine setting > -- add a commandline parameter for the console-* tools to let you specify the > correct encoding. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
