Raymie Stata created AVRO-2092: ---------------------------------- Summary: Flip default value of org.apache.avro.specific.use_custom_coder to true Key: AVRO-2092 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2092 Project: Avro Issue Type: Improvement Components: java Reporter: Raymie Stata Priority: Minor
The initial implementation of "custom coders" for SpecificRecord is incomplete (it didn't initially handle logical types) and hasn't been battle-tested. Thus, it includes a feature flag (org.apache.avro.specific.use_custom_coder) to toggle between the new code and the old code. The initial default for this feature flag is false -- defaulting to the old code -- but when the implementation of SpecificRecord is completed and it's seen more production use, we should switch the default to false, on the way to eliminating the flag altogether (AVRO-2091). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
