Sharad Agarwal commented on AVRO-80: ------------------------------------ I think there should be a default and easy way to work with Strings. I came across couple of instances where potential users enquired about this and this limitation deterred them to use Avro. Should we make the reflect *default* representation of String schema as java.lang.String itself? I agree that performance is the concern but I think for reflect that trade-off is fine. > 'reflect' implementation requires Avro classes to define types > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-80 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-80 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: Bug > Components: java > Reporter: Sharad Agarwal > > Since 'reflect' implementation is expected to work with existing code, it > should work with java types.
