HI avro-users, I'm having issues with SortedKeyValueFile.Reader. Even though the return type of get is a specific record type, the actual instance returned has type GenericRecord. How do I convert this GenericRecord into an instance of my specific record?
Looking at the source code SortedKeyValueFile is using the Generic interface to read the data. But the return type for get is V where I have set V to be a specific record. e.g SortedKeyValueFile.Reader<CharSequence, GraphNodeData> where GraphNodeData is one of my avro records. I don't understand how this code compiles since the return type is V=GraphNodeData and a GenericRecord can't be cast to a GraphNodeData. Thoughts? Thanks J
