> Version 1.8.0 has added the support of logical types. A conversion class
> (Conversions.DecimalConversion) has also been added for decimal type.
> However, the IDL compiler still uses ByteBuffer for decimal types, which is
> not the same behaviour as data, time or timestamp type (added in AVRO-1684).
