Eelco Hillenius commented on AVRO-96:
-------------------------------------

Ok, so documenting ReflectDatumReader's constructor would suffice then.

> Currently, the package name that you pass in to ReflectDatumReader needs to end with a dot. This should either be documented or the argument checking should be a bit more defensive. E.g. when you pass in new ReflectDatumReader("org.apache.avro"), it'll try to instantiate objects like org.apache.avroFoo.
