hi guozhang,
    i mean ,in a  certain topic ,can i use the offset compute the msg's time 
stamp(when the msg produced)?
in fact, i need an api look like:
setOffset(String topicId ,String groupId, long timeStamp){

}
this method can be call by the comsumer ,and then  the offset will be reset.
after call this method,the comsumer only comsume the msg occur after the 
timeStamp.

i am very sorry .I do not specify whether I describe clearly.

Hello,

I do not fully understanding your question, did you mean that you want to know 
when a message with certain offset is produced?

Hi all,
we have a scene like this:
A system produce  the msg ,B system comsumer the msg.
for some reason the B system unwork,and then  we need abandon the out of date 
msg.
but now in our msg there is no time stamp.
how can i use the offset to do this.

does kafka know when the msg produce?

how can i  location the certain offset?



thanks
