schema to just read as "byte[] array" from kafka

[Raja . Aravapalli]

Hi

I am using SimpleStringSchema to deserialize a message read from kafka, but 
need some help to know if there is any schema available I can use rather than 
“SimpleStringSchema()” and instead just get “byte[]” without any 
deserialization happening!

Below is code I am currently using, but instead of SimpleStringSchema() which 
is giving me Strings, but I want the a raw byte array Byte[]:

FlinkKafkaConsumer08<String> myConsumer = new 
FlinkKafkaConsumer08<>("xxx_topic", new SimpleStringSchema(), properties);


Thanks a lot.


Regards,
Raja.
