Paolo Patierno updated KAFKA-5588: ---------------------------------- Description: Hi, it seems to me that the --new-consumer option on the ConsoleConsumer is useless. The useOldConsumer var is related to specify --zookeeper on the command line but then the ----bootstrap-server option (or the --new-consumer) can't be used. If you use --bootstrap-server option then the new consumer is used automatically so no need for --new-consumer. It turns out the using the old or new consumer is just related on using --zookeeper or --bootstrap-server option (which can't be used together, so I can't use new consumer connecting to zookeeper). It's also clear when you use --zookeeper for the old consumer and the output from help says : "Consider using the new consumer by passing [bootstrap-server] instead of [zookeeper]" I'm going to remove the --new-consumer option from the tool. Thanks, Paolo. was: Hi, it seems to me that the --new-consumer option on the ConsoleConsumer is useless.
