Summary: JsonConverter deserialized Struct containing bytes field does not return true for equals() Key: KAFKA-3803 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3803 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0 Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava The problem is that byte[] comparisons will return false for equality, so even if the two are effectively equal, Struct.equals will not return true. It's unclear if this should be fixed or not. Equality wouldn't work for map or array types containing bytes either. However, on possibility is making ByteBuffer the default instead to alleviate this, although then we may end up with asymmetry in equality. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
