Kevin Tham commented on AVRO-1063:
----------------------------------
Is there a reason why this has gone unmerged for over a year? I would really
like to see Paul Dlug's changes merged in... all tests pass and I don't see any
issues with replacing yajl with multi_json. This is a problem for those who
wish to use the ruby library with JRuby.
> Ruby client should use multi_json rather than being locked down to yajl

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1063
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ruby
> Reporter: Paul Dlug
> Priority: Minor
>
> The avro ruby client uses yajl for JSON serialization which is just one of
> many suitable JSON implementations for ruby. The multi_json gem provides a
> wrapper for JSON serialization selecting the fastest library available (Oj is
> now even faster than Yajl) and falling back to a pure ruby implementation
> bundled with multi_json. Requiring yajl also precludes the ruby gem from
> being used under jruby since it requires a C extension.
