["Christophe Le Saec (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3641?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17619383#comment-17619383 ] 

Christophe Le Saec commented on AVRO-3641:
------------------------------------------

_compile time safety for nullability_
In java, it should imply usage of [checkerframework|https://checkerframework.org/] (like Apache beam project does) with annotations like @org.checkerframework.checker.nullness.qual.NonNull for example.
But currently, Avro project has no dependency with CheckerFramework, so it should be added for that; i don't know if it's planned.
