[jira] [Commented] (AVRO-1497) Add LogicalType support to Java

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1497?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14211364#comment-14211364 ] 

Zoltan Farkas commented on AVRO-1497:
-------------------------------------

I have implemented the logicalType based on the spec at:

https://github.com/zolyfarkas/avro/blob/trunk/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/LogicalType.java

also wrote an extension for joda types as logical types.:

https://github.com/zolyfarkas/avro/tree/trunk/lang/java/avro-joda

Let me know if the implementation looks OK  and I can make a patch .

> AVRO-1402 updates the Avro spec to include logical types, which are stored as existing types but interpreted as others. The next step is to implement LogicalType (in Java) that provides tools to attach a logical type to a schema, read a logical type, and validate logical types.
