-----------------------------------

             Summary: Make logEndOffset available in the Zookeeper consumer
                 Key: KAFKA-1977
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1977
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core
            Reporter: Will Funnell
            Priority: Minor


The requirement is to create a snapshot from the Kafka topic but NOT do 
continual reads after that point. For example you might be creating a backup of 
the data to a file.

In order to achieve that, a recommended solution by Joel Koshy and Jay Kreps 
was to expose the high watermark, as maxEndOffset, from the FetchResponse 
object through to each MessageAndMetadata object in order to be aware when the 
consumer has reached the end of each partition.

The submitted patch achieves this by adding the maxEndOffset to the 
PartitionTopicInfo, which is updated when a new message arrives in the 
ConsumerFetcherThread and then exposed in MessageAndMetadata.
