> Avro support for all compression codecs

> I may be reading this wrong but at this time
> org.apache.avro.file.CodecFactory only supports null, deflate, and snappy
> compression codecs.
> I would like to change the fromString method to use
> Class.forName(codec).newInstance(); after the codec was not found in the
> REGISTERED map but before the AvroRuntimeException is thrown.
> Here are some of my supporting thoughts
> 1. This should not interduce much slowness because it will only be called
> initialize.
> 2. This will allow for support for GZip, BZip2, and LZO with out adding more
> dependances to the maven pom file.
> 3. This will allow for a future Jiri I would like to do that would allow
> AvroOutputFormat to be able to use the following configs:
> mapred.output.compress and mapred.output.compression.codec
