malcolmrobbins commented on issue #309: AVRO-2079: Add ability to generate 
Java8 native date/time classes (new)
URL: https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/309#issuecomment-421868660
 
 
   FYI I overcame this problem.  To do this I simply needed to run the build.sh 
script in the lang/java folder rather than following the more explicit mvn 
instructions in the How To Contribute guide.  Now I just need to figure out how 
to get the avro-maven-plugin to generate Java sources that use Java 8 datetime 
rather than Joda

> Currently, for the date/time related logical types, we are generating Joda 
> date/time objects. Since we've moved to Java-8 (AVRO-2043) it seems logical 
> to also provide the possibility to generate {{java.time.*}} date/time objects 
> instead of the Joda time variants.
> I propose to make this is a switch in {{SpecificCompiler.java}} which will 
> default to Joda (I think), but can be set to generate the Java 8 versions.
> (I'm currently trying to run through the code to see if I can make it work.)
