Tom White commented on AVRO-1274:
---------------------------------
Thanks for taking a look Scott. I agree that over time the builder API can be
used as a replacement to hide the problems with the existing Schema API from
users.
Regarding the required field with default value - I'll add that. Also, we could
check the union's first type is consistent with any default, but I can't see a
way of getting it to be a compile-time check - we'd have to do it when the
schema is built. I can make these changes in this JIRA or another one - either
way works for me.
