----------------------------------------

             Summary: Honor schema defaults with the Constructor in addition to the builders.
                 Key: AVRO-1261
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1261
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: java
    Affects Versions: 1.7.4
            Reporter: Christopher Conner
            Priority: Minor


As I understand it, currently if you want to utilize defaults in a schema, ie:

{ 
"namespace": "com.chris.test", 
"type": "record", 
"name": "CHRISTEST", 
"doc": "Chris Test", 
"fields": [ 
{"name": "firstname", "type": "string", "default": "Chris"}, 
{"name": "lastname", "type": "string", "default": "Conner"}, 
{"name": "username", "type": "string", "default": "cconner"}
] 
}

Then I have to use the builders to create my objects.  IE:

public class ChrisAvroTest {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {


CHRISTEST person = CHRISTEST.newBuilder() 
.build(); 
System.out.println("person:" + person);

} 
}


Is my understanding correct?  Is it possible to make it so the default constructor as well?
