             Summary: SimpleConsumerShell logs terminating message to stdout instead of stderr
                 Key: KAFKA-5237
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5237
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: clients
    Affects Versions: 0.10.2.1
            Reporter: Daniel Einspanjer
            Priority: Trivial


The SimpleConsumerShell has one big advantage over the standard kafka-console-consumer client, it supports the --no-wait-at-logend parameter which lets you script its use without having to rely on a timeout or dealing with the exception and stacktrace thrown by said timeout.

Unfortunately, when you use this option, it will write a termination message to stdout when it is finished.  This means if you are using it to dump the contents of a topic to a file, you get an extra line.

This pull request just changes that one line to call System.err.println instead of println.
