Xiaolu Ye commented on AVRO-726: -------------------------------- Hi Scott, Sorry, just saw your comment. I'll supply a patch shortly. Meanwhile, is it possible to make those data members protected in 1.5 anyway? Noticed as of now, it's not in the blocker list. Thanks, Xiaolu > Make GenericDatumReader/GenericDatumWriter data member protected so that it > can be used by the derived classes > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-726 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-726 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: java > Affects Versions: 1.5.0 > Reporter: Xiaolu Ye > Fix For: 1.5.0 > > > Currently, GenericDatumReader/GenericDatumWriter data members are private.
