             Summary: Support pre-defining types within GoraCompiler
                 Key: GORA-397
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GORA-397
             Project: Apache Gora
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: avro, gora-compiler
    Affects Versions: 0.5
            Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
             Fix For: 0.6


Right now in the GoraCompiler we do not support predefining field types based 
on ordering of .avsc as it is passed into the GoraCompiler.
This is supported in the Avro SpecificCompiler meaning that you can write 
schemas which inherit fields of custom type based on the compiler reading the 
custom type before it is used within the compilation and use of this type in 
another schema.
This feature is VERY useful when working with scomplex schema models and where 
you wish to separate out and maintain individual objects rather than explicitly 
nest them in large, difficult to maintain schema objects!
