Alexandre Normand commented on AVRO-1268:
-----------------------------------------
Doug, would you like me to try and complete a fully working version of the
parallel-tree solution? I was going to drop it because of the complications
with unions and the recursive schemas issue but I might be able to fix it.
Although I still think that combined with the slightly worse performance
compared to the Map-based solution makes this somewhat less appealing.
> Add java-class, java-key-class and java-element-class support for stringable
> types to SpecificData

> Stringable types are java classes that can be serialized through strings
> (which require a single string constructor and a valid toString()
> implementation). ReflectData currently has support from stringable types but
> it would be desirable to get this feature with SpecificData.
> The work involves changes to the SpecificCompiler (depends on {{@java-class}}
> support in AVRO-1267) to generate the specific sources with the proper java
> type as well as moving the ReflectDatumReader and ReflectDatumWriter to read
> the java-class/java-key-class and java-element-class properties.
