Hi, I have a doubt about how I can use schema evolution with Avro. I was testing the schema resolution with Avro and I have a writer schema and a reader schema (which is slight modified version of writer schema, one field deleted). While reading the data using the reader schema, can't I use the SpecificDatumReader<MyAvroGeneratedClass> for reading the data?
I am able to sucessfully read the data using GenericDatum Reader, but it woud be great if I can read it using SpecificDatumReader. My Schema is long with quite a few fields and using GenericDatumReader would force me to populate all the fields myself after reading the GenericRecord. So I wanted to find out if there was a way to use SpecificDatumReader. Thanks Rohini
