             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.
