I wrote a Kafka 0.7.2 Producer that is using Snappy compression (compression.codec=2)
The producer works fine, but when the consumer tries to pull this data it throws a "kafka.common.UnknownCodecException: 2 is an unknown compression codec" error. If I set compression.codec=1 (gzip) then it works fine. Is snappy not available for the consumer libraries for 0.7.2? I am using the kafka.javaapi.consumer.SimpleConsumer package. Thanks, James
