Hi @lewismc
I think the logic is fine, the non-null checks you are describing are for
checking nullable schemas, and that is what you've described. Yes, it is
recursive if there are nested objects, but the exception is for when
"something" goes wrong with serialization (for example, class changes can
easily make your serialized data unreadable if you were using reflection) that
is why Java forces us to throw an IOException and not NullPointerException. And
caching this exception makes us "retry" serialization calling again to <return
toBytes(o)> on the object. If we don't print the IO exception, we would
probably get an stackOverFlowException because of the recursion and catching
this error would be a lot harder.
