Hi Samir, In 0.8, we don't have SyncProducer as a public api. You can use kafka.javaapi.producer.Producer to send the data synchronously or asynchronously.
The quick start page is outdated, and we plan to update a few pages soon (before the 0.8 BETA release). In fact, we would love to have contribution from the community for updating the website. :) Thanks, Swapnil On 4/18/13 11:30 PM, "Samir Madhavan" <samir.madha...@fluturasolutions.com> wrote: >Hi, > >I'm using kafka-0.8 Snapshot.
