----------------------------------------
I don't think this is critical we should see if anyone asks for this.
> [Java] Support logical type encodings from Avro

> Key: ARROW-6594
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6594
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Java
> Reporter: Micah Kornfield
> Assignee: Ji Liu
> Priority: Major
> Labels: avro, pull-request-available
> Fix For: 0.16.0
>
> Time Spent: 2h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> Avro supports some logical types that overlap with Arrow logical types
> ([http://avro.apache.org/docs/current/spec.html#Logical+Types)
> |http://avro.apache.org/docs/current/spec.html#Logical+Types]
>
> For the ones that overlap, we should use the appropriate Arrow Logical type
> array instead of the raw values.
>
> it potentially makes sense to break this down further into sub-tasks for each
> logical type.
