Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-242: -------------------------------------- The avro specification doesn't indicate that the values must be Strings, so they could be arbitrary JSON. Not sure what the best approach is, though, from a Java API. > add support for per-schema metadata > ----------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-242 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-242 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: java > Reporter: Doug Cutting > Assignee: Doug Cutting > Fix For: 1.3.0 > > > The Avro specification permits schema json to contain other property names to > be used besides those listed in the specification.
