 Review comment:
   [Here is an excellent 
article](https://shipilev.net/blog/2016/arrays-wisdom-ancients/) that explains 
why nowadays it's better (despite counter intuitive) to use `toArray(new 
File[0])` in favor of `toArray(new File[fileSet.size()])`. The old code was not 
wrong, but I wanted to remove those redundant parentheses and switched to `new 
File[0]` because I was already editing that line. ;-)

> Add ability to use Java 8 date/time types instead of Joda time.
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: AVRO-2079
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2079
>             Project: Avro
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: java, logical types
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.2
>            Reporter: Auke van Leeuwen
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: patch-available
>
> Currently, for the date/time related logical types, we are generating Joda 
> date/time objects. Since we've moved to Java-8 (AVRO-2043) it seems logical 
> to also provide the possibility to generate {{java.time.*}} date/time objects 
> instead of the Joda time variants.
> I propose to make this is a switch in {{SpecificCompiler.java}} which will 
> default to Joda (I think), but can be set to generate the Java 8 versions.
> (I'm currently trying to run through the code to see if I can make it work.)
