Joel Koshy commented on KAFKA-363:
----------------------------------
Thanks for making that change. ProducerConfig: There's a compilation error due
to getString default being given an int. Also, the second call to
getCompressionCodec should have the default as well (or some unit tests will
fail). Looks good otherwise.
> Replace numerical compression codes in config with something human readable

> Currently we have compression codes like 1 or 2, which is pretty unintuitive.
> What does 1 mean?
> We should replace these with human-readable codes like "snappy", "gzip", or
> "none" and change the documentation. We can continue to support the existing
> integer codes in addition for backwards compatibility with existing
> configurations.
