> Key: AVRO-3040
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3040
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: csharp
> Reporter: John Gonyo
> Priority: Major
>
> GenericWriter expects schema array properties to be an actual Array type,
> while Reflect and Specific writers expect array fields to be of IList<T>.
> For convenience, it would nice to support List, IList or Array types for
> array schema fields. Changing GenericWriter code to look for an IList
> instead of Array it can support existing Array and allow List<T>/IList<T>,
> etc. A small change with a large benefit to code using the library.
