    Description

      1. While the default console-producer, console-consumer paradigm works great, when I try modiying the batch size

      bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --batch-size 300 --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test1

      it gives me a

      Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NumberFormatException: null

      at kafka.producer.ConsoleProducer.main(ConsoleProducer.scala)

      I have looked at the code and can't figure out what's wrong

      2. When I do bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --timeout 30000 --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test1

      I would think that console-producer would wait for 30s if the batch size (default 200) is not full. It doesn't. It takes the same time without the timeout parameter (default 1000) and dumps whatever the batch size.

      Resolution from Jun

      1. The code does the following to set batch size
      props.put("batch.size", batchSize)
      Instead, it should do
      props.put("batch.size", batchSize.toString)

      2. It sets the wrong property name for timeout. Instead of doing
      props.put("queue.enqueueTimeout.ms", sendTimeout.toString)
      it should do
      props.put("queue.time", sendTimeout.toString)
