[jira] [Updated] (AVRO-961) avrocat/avropipe to use stdin when no file specified

["Douglas Creager (Updated) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Douglas Creager updated AVRO-961:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: 0001-AVRO-961.-C-avrocat-pipe-use-stdin-when-no-file-is-s.patch

The previous patch won't work on Windows systems, since there isn't a /dev/stdin file to open.  This patch updates the I/O reader classes to take in an already-open FILE pointer.  This lets avrocat and avropipe pass in the stdin FILE pointer directly, which should work on just about every system.

> Currently, when using avrocat or avropipe in a pipe, you have to specify /dev/stdin explicitly.
> It would be nice if it defaulted to /dev/stdin when no file was specified.
