Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1126:
------------------------------------
> I would like to consider that in our API we don't use any JSON default values
> at all [ ... ]
This might combine two things that are currently orthogonal (schema
representation & data representation). My instinct is to keep schemas
independent of data representations. A given JSON default value may have
different representations in different data representations (generic, specific,
reflect, protobuf, thrift, etc.). These are connected through the Json
encoding. A json default value can be converted to a particular data
representation by decoding with a JsonDecoder and a DatumReader for the desired
data representation.
Would you have this conversion done at Schema read time rather than at
default-value access time, so that the same schema is represented differently
for generic, specific & reflect? Or do you have something else in mind?

> Quite annoyingly with Jackson 2+ the base package name has changed from
> org.codehaus.jackson to com.fasterxml.jackson so in addition to changing the
> dependencies from:
> {code:xml}
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.codehaus.jackson</groupId>
> <artifactId>jackson-core-asl</artifactId>
> <version>${jackson.version}</version>
> </dependency>
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.codehaus.jackson</groupId>
> <artifactId>jackson-mapper-asl</artifactId>
> <version>${jackson.version}</version>
> </dependency>
> {code}
> to:
> {code:xml}
> <dependency>
> <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
> <artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
> <version>${jackson.version}</version>
> </dependency>
> <dependency>
> <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
> <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
> <version>${jackson.version}</version>
> </dependency>
> {code}
> the base package in the code needs to be updated. More info can be found
> [here|http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonUpgradeFrom19To20], I am happy to do
> the work just let me know what is preferable i.e. should I just attach a
> patch to this issue?
