Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-6930:
--------------------------------------
Avro 1.4, which should be released next week, better integrates 'specific' and
'reflect'. With a little more effort this could be make to 'just work', i.e.,
ReflectRequestor and ReflectResponder would be able to handle Specific data.
Glancing at the code, it looks like mostly what remains is fixing a few isX()
methods in ReflectData so that unions would be dispatched correctly. Making
GenericArray to implement Collection would also simplify this. Anyway, it's
close. If this sounds of interest, please file an Avro Jira requesting this.
Alternately, we could simply configure things, protocol-by-protocol to use
either specific or reflect. But intermixing might then cause problems, and it
might be nice to be able to move more incrementally.

> AvroRpcEngine uses 'reflect' based java implementation. There should be a way
