Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-245:
-----------------------------------
> I'm just doing these one at a time.
So do you intend to extend this tool or add a new tool for that? I think we
shouldn't encourage the generation of Avro data files that are not in the Avro
data file format, so I'd prefer only one tool. Since the data file contains
the schema, one's not needed on the command line. If provided, it should be
used for projection. If reading json input, one datum per line, and no schema
is provided on the command line then the first line of the file could be
assumed to be the schema.
> Commandline utility for converting to and from Avro's binary format.
