Stu Hood updated AVRO-652:
--------------------------
Component/s: java
> Expose sync points in DataFileReader
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-652
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-652
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: java
> Reporter: Stu Hood
> Priority: Minor
>
> DataFileReader.blockStart is hidden from the caller, but exposing it (as
> readonly) would allow callers to discover sync points in a file by watching
> it for changes.
> seek(long) only takes an exact block boundary, while sync(long) moves to the
> next block boundary. There does not appear to be a way to rediscover points
> that you can seek() to, which would be very useful for building or recovering
> an index for a file.
