Hello, Sam is right in his previous answer.More precisely, the field "doc" is read by the Compiler, but not stored at the moment in the Node object. The reason might be that the field "doc" is optional is the avro specification (see: https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.7.7/spec.html, Complex types). If you want to store the field doc, you'll have to modify the source code yourself to:- create a new member "doc" in the Node API (Node.hh),- store the doc field in Node as it is read by the Compiler (Compiler.cc),- serialize the field doc in NodeImpl.cc I did a patch for my own use were I store and read fields "doc" for a NodeRecord, and I serialize fields doc for the root Node of a NodeRecord. You can find it at:the corresponding branch (created for the patch):https://github.com/pidefrem/avro/tree/branch-1.7-specificrecord the corresponding commit for the field doc:https://github.com/pidefrem/avro/commit/795a0805b8ea8d3228bd92a483c9cbb405e11a62 Rem: if you want to serialize all fields doc of a NodeRecord, just change line 195 of NodeImpl.cc from if (depth == 1 && getDoc().size()) { to if (getDoc().size()) { (Maybe my patch could be added in the trunk of the source code if it is useful?) Hope this helps. Pierre

This would exclude your docs.

In general I don't see my doc which I have in Avro Schema getting shown when I print it out.
