---------------------------------------
Summary: Add java-class support for stringable types to
SpecificData
Key: AVRO-1268
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1268
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.7.4
Reporter: Alexandre Normand
Assignee: Alexandre Normand
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.7.5
Stringable types are java classes that can be serialized through strings (which
require a single string constructor and a valid toString() implementation).
ReflectData currently has support from stringable types but it would be
desirable to get this feature with SpecificData.
The work involves changes to the SpecificCompiler (depends on {{@java-class}}
support in AVRO-1267) to generate the specific sources with the proper java
type as well as moving the ReflectDatumReader and ReflectDatumWriter to read
the java-class property.
