Swapnil Ghike created KAFKA-570:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Kafka should not need snappy jar at runtime
Key: KAFKA-570
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-570
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.8
Reporter: Swapnil Ghike
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 0.8.1
CompressionFactory imports snappy jar in a pattern match. The purpose of
importing it this way seems to be avoiding the import unless snappy compression
is actually required. However, kafka throws a ClassNotFoundException if snappy
jar is removed at runtime from lib_managed.
This exception can be easily seen by producing some data with the console
producer.
