Make GenericDatumReader/GenericDatumWriter data member protected so that it can
be used by the derived classes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AVRO-726
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-726
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.5.0
Reporter: Xiaolu Ye
Fix For: 1.5.0
Currently, GenericDatumReader/GenericDatumWriter data members are private. Is
it possible to make them protected so that we could extend those classes and
create our own special DatumReader/Writer? The reason we want to do that is
because we've created our own base SpecificRecordEx that implements
SpecificRecord and added put/get for primitive types. We now want to extend the
GenericDatumReader/GenericDatumWriter to use those primitive put/get functions
to reduce box/unbox for better performance.
Thanks,
Xiaolu
