[jira] [Created] (AVRO-2535) Ruby support for enum defaults

Tim Perkins created AVRO-2535:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Ruby support for enum defaults
                 Key: AVRO-2535
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2535
             Project: Apache Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ruby
    Affects Versions: 1.9.0
            Reporter: Tim Perkins
            Assignee: Tim Perkins
             Fix For: 1.10.0


Avro v1.9.0 introduced defaults for enum types (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1340).

This issue is to add support for enum defaults to the Ruby implementation.

The current enum handling in the Ruby implementation does not follow the spec. If a writer's symbol is unknown to the reader, then the writer's symbol is still returned. 

I don't plan on breaking that behavior, but if a default is specified for the enum type then that will be returned instead of the unknown writer's symbol.
