Eli Reisman updated KAFKA-367:
------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
First attempt here. Defaulting StringEncoder/Decoder to "UTF-8" is done, should
be able to get user-defined alternate charsets from CLI and use from Consumer
side, not so sure about Producer side.
Let me know if there's stuff to fix here, thanks again!

>
> 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.
