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()
