I have some problem with kafka Producer, but i dont know how i can solved it

My Maven Dependency:

  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId>
    <artifactId>kafka_2.10</artifactId>
    <version>0.10.1.1</version>
</dependency>

If i create:

 Producer<String, byte[]> producer = createKafkaProducer();

I become Exception:

org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.Producer is in the kafka-clients artifact. You should use

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId>
    <artifactId>kafka-clients</artifactId>
    <version>0.10.2.1</version>
</dependency>

kafka_2.10 is the artifact for the broker. You don't need it if you're just writing a producer/consumer (except for integration testing your producer/consumer against a test cluster).
