Thomas Diesler commented on CAMEL-9026:
---------------------------------------

[~ancosen] I suspect your run your test with a flat surefire classpath. In 
which case the test sees the transitive tree of mvn dependencies in scope test, 
provided, compile. If you do the same thing in a modular environment (i.e. 
wildfly) it would behave very differently. 

Although it is reasonable to assume that a deployment can see camel-kafka APIs, 
it is incorrect to assume that camel-kafka can use the deployments classloader 
to load internals that only camel-kafka should see.

The handling/caching of classloaders in Kafka is a tragedy as well as it 
reliance on a particular TCCL. An API that works well in a modular environment 
makes little assumptions about classloaders. Instead it provides the caller 
with a means to pass in a CL of its choice.

In this particular case, camel-kafka would want to pass to Kafka its own CL to 
load the StringEncoder

> KafkaEndpoint cannot load the StringEncoder because we do not expose the
