To the best of my recollection, the IDL custom template bits you mention below have not been wired up through all of the tooling. Please feel free to submit JIRA tickets and patches to improve it.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    I'm looking for a way to override the default velocity templates
    used to generate java sources from IDL files. I know that I can
    do this by passing a command like argument to override
    'org.apache.avro.specific.templates' but that doesn't work well
    with our build process. We want a standard set of templates used
    by many developers.

    What is the best way to override the system property? It appears
    from the avro code that while the SpecificCompiler.java supports
    a setTemplateDir() method, nothing in the avro-maven-plugin calls
    this method.

    Thanks,
    George
