Deprecated Classes

Class and Description
org.apache.avro.reflect.MapEntry Use org.apache.avro.util.MapEntry
org.apache.avro.ipc.SocketServer use SaslSocketServer instead.
org.apache.avro.ipc.SocketTransceiver use SaslSocketTransceiver instead.

Deprecated Methods

Method and Description
org.apache.avro.io.DecoderFactory.createBinaryDecoder(byte[], BinaryDecoder) use DecoderFactory.binaryDecoder(byte[], BinaryDecoder) instead
org.apache.avro.io.DecoderFactory.createBinaryDecoder(byte[], int, int, BinaryDecoder) use DecoderFactory.binaryDecoder(byte[], int, int, BinaryDecoder) instead
org.apache.avro.io.DecoderFactory.createBinaryDecoder(InputStream, BinaryDecoder) use the equivalent DecoderFactory.binaryDecoder(InputStream, BinaryDecoder) instead
org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumReader.createFixed(Object, byte[], Schema) As of Avro 1.6.0 this method has been moved to GenericData.createFixed(Object, byte[], Schema)
org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumReader.createFixed(Object, Schema) As of Avro 1.6.0 this method has been moved to GenericData.createFixed(Object, Schema)
org.apache.avro.Protocol.createMessage(String, String, Schema)
org.apache.avro.Protocol.createMessage(String, String, Schema, Schema, Schema)
org.apache.avro.Schema.createRecord(List<Schema.Field>) This method allows to create Schema objects that cannot be parsed by Schema.Parser.parse(String). It will be removed in a future version of Avro. Better use iSchema.createRecord(String, String, String, boolean, List) to produce a fully qualified Schema.
org.apache.avro.io.DecoderFactory.defaultFactory() use the equivalent DecoderFactory.get() instead
org.apache.avro.mapred.AvroMultipleOutputs.getCollector(String, Reporter) Use AvroMultipleOutputs.collect(java.lang.String, org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Reporter, java.lang.Object) method for collecting output
org.apache.avro.ipc.specific.SpecificRequestor.getDatumReader(Schema)
org.apache.avro.util.Utf8.getLength() call Utf8.getByteLength() instead.
org.apache.avro.compiler.specific.SpecificCompiler.javaUnbox(Schema) use javaUnbox(Schema, boolean), kept for backward compatibility of custom templates
org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumReader.newRecord(Object, Schema) As of Avro 1.6.0 this method has been moved to GenericData.newRecord(Object, Schema)
org.apache.avro.Schema.parse(File) use Schema.Parser instead.
org.apache.avro.Schema.parse(InputStream) use Schema.Parser instead.
org.apache.avro.Schema.parse(String) use Schema.Parser instead.
org.apache.avro.Schema.parse(String, boolean) use Schema.Parser instead.
org.apache.avro.ipc.Requestor.readError(Schema, Decoder)
org.apache.avro.ipc.Requestor.readResponse(Schema, Decoder)
org.apache.avro.util.Utf8.setLength(int) call Utf8.setByteLength(int) instead.
org.apache.avro.Schema.toString(Collection<Schema>, boolean)
