Christophe Taton commented on AVRO-1368:
----------------------------------------
Here is a test that demonstrates the behavior:
{code}
final Schema schema = Schema.create(Schema.Type.STRING);
final ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
final Encoder encoder = EncoderFactory.get().directBinaryEncoder(baos,
null);
final DatumWriter<Object> writer = new SpecificDatumWriter<Object>(schema);
writer.write(new Object(), encoder);
final byte[] bytes = baos.toByteArray();
System.out.println(new String(bytes));
{code}
The java Object is silently accepted and converted to a string like
"java.lang.Object@ee51b2c".
> String schema accepts any Java object, and converts it with toString()
