Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-939:
-----------------------------------
Oops. I generated the patch from the wrong directory, but (cd lang/java/avro;
patch -p 0 < AVRO-939.patch) should work, since all changes are under there.
You need to first run 'mvn test-compile' since Perf.java is in the test tree.
Sorry I forgot to mention that.
