--------------------------------
Hi Scott,
I've created jira AVRO-777 for the enhancement. Just want to mention that in
addition to change the data member to protected, could you also look at whether
some of the member functions could be made protected like npe() in
GenericDatumWriter? I needed to use npe in my derived class and had to change
GenericDatumWriter in my local copy.
Thanks,
Xiaolu

> 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
