Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-814:
-----------------------------------
I'm not exactly sure what you want to happen. Do you want a
SpecificDatumReader(Class) to retain a pointer to the class and use that in
newRecord()? If so, that will only work for the class of the top-level
instance, nested classes would still use the class named in the schema.
> SpecificDatumReader.newRecord always looks up the classname

> Even when given an instance of the record class, SpecificDatumReader looks up
> the Class in the SpecificData Class cache. This breaks decoding into
> subclasses of a generated record class without programmatically modifying the
> schema of the subclass, and is probably unnecessary.
