Thiruvalluvan M. G. commented on AVRO-792:
------------------------------------------

bq. Lastly, this contains an API change, making a public method private. This 
is probably a good thing here – the method in question was one I did not know 
what to do with previously and was a bit opaque for public consumption. This 
might not be acceptable for 1.5.1 and need to remain public though we can mark 
it deprecated and plan to hide it for 1.6.0.

The only use of the return value of ResolvingDecoder.resolve() is to pass it 
the constructor of ResolvingDecoder, which is private. In theory someone could 
have used the resolve() method, but there is no practical value for that method 
outside ResolvingDecoder.

> We have an avro map/reduce job used to be working with avro 1.4, but broken 
> with avro 1.5.  The M/R job with avro 1.5 worked fine under our debugging 
> environment, but broken when we moved to a real cluster.  At one instance f 
> testing, the job had 23 reducers.  Four of them succeeded and the rest failed

> The signature of our map() is:
> public void map(Utf8 input, AvroCollector<Pair<Utf8, GenericRecord>> 
> collector, Reporter reporter) throws IOException;
> and reduce() is:
> public void reduce(Utf8 key, Iterable<GenericRecord> values, 
> AvroCollector<GenericRecord> collector, Reporter reporter) throws IOException;
> All the GenericRecords are of the same schema.
> There are many changes in the area of serialization/de-serailization between 
> avro 1.4 and 1.5, but could not figure out why the exceptions were generated.
