Jay Kreps commented on KAFKA-367:
---------------------------------
This looks good, but I don't see where we make use of the new constructor. I
think we need to pass in the properties in the producer and consumer, right?
> StringEncoder/StringDecoder use platform default character set

> 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.
