Jeff Hammerbacher updated AVRO-161:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: AVRO-161.patch

I've gotten this code path working in a slightly unusual fashion: I implemented Philip's suggestion in AVRO-158 to have a factory method called DataFileWriter.create_for_append() and I also added a factory method DataFileWriter.create_new() to replace the old, plain constructor. These new methods are implemented using Python's @classmethod decorator.

It's been a while since I wrote production code, so this implementation may be hacky. I've gotten it working for realz in a script that you can see at http://github.com/hammer/avro-rpc-quickstart/blob/master/src/main/python/serialize_message.py. I will turn that patch into a new test in testio.py once I get confirmation on the approach I've taken.

Looking forward to the feedback!

Thanks,
Jeff

> Avro file object container are mutable and we should test that fact. testio.py currently just tests open a file for writing, writing a few records, closing the file, then reading the file back in.
