Xiaolu Ye commented on AVRO-726:
--------------------------------
For us, making the fields protected is good enough.
Btw, I noticed the fix version is now 1.5.1 for this issue. Is it because of
the npe function I requested for GenericDatumWriter?
> Make GenericDatumReader/GenericDatumWriter data member protected so that it

> 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.
