Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-304:
-----------------------------------
This is already possible. One creates the SpecificDatumReader using the
expected class. The user of the DatumReader (e.g., DataFileReader) can then
call setSchema() with the actual schema.
> There should be a way to do schema resolution with SpecificDatumReader

> Presently one could do schema resolution (where the schema of the Avro data
> stream is different from the Schema desired by the reader) only with
> GenericDatumReader. A similar facility is needed for SpecificDatumReader as
> well.
