Alexandre Normand commented on AVRO-1147:
-----------------------------------------
It looks good. Indeed, I had missed the @Stringable on map keys. I thought I
had cleaned up the writeMapKey signature and used Decoder though...but I think
I may have selected the wrong patch version when uploading. I'll be more
careful next time.
I think you can go ahead with the commit. It's going to be very useful. Thanks
for the quick response!

> I'm using avro reflection for some serialization that doesn't require the
> best performance for some short-lived data.
> However, the object I'm trying to serialize uses a {{Map}} with non-String
> keys (the key class is {{Integer}}) and, because of the strict restriction on
> Map keys being Strings, it fails.
> Could we consider allowing Map keys to be *{{Stringable}}* classes (I'm
> thinking of something similar to Doug's solution in
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1146)
