Zoltan Farkas commented on AVRO-1497:
-------------------------------------
I will keep an eye on the the JsonProperties rework, and will update the
logical types as well.
Currently in my code I implemented support for extensions (like the joda
extension).
In java 1.6 and upwards there is a a more standard way of doing this:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html
and maybe I should change to that? what do you guys think?

> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: java
> Reporter: Ryan Blue
>
> AVRO-1402 updates the Avro spec to include logical types, which are stored as
> existing types but interpreted as others. The next step is to implement
> LogicalType (in Java) that provides tools to attach a logical type to a
> schema, read a logical type, and validate logical types.
