Support "mixin properties" for specific codegen
-----------------------------------------------
Key: AVRO-404
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-404
Project: Avro
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: java, spec
Reporter: Todd Lipcon
As we add more features for RPC and the specific codegen, there are some
codegen options that should be provided as annotations on schema fields. For
example, some users may want to turn binary fields into byte[], and other
people may prefer ByteBuffer. Since these are codegen-scoped and not
data-scoped, it would be nice to allow the properties to be "mixed in" at
codegen time. By moving them out of the main schema definition, different users
of the same Avro protocol could make different choices for the codegen in their
specific applications.
