Package org.apache.avro.io Description

Utilities for Encoding and Decoding Avro data.

Encoder is the abstract type encapsulating the encoding of Avro data. Encoder instances are created and configured with EncoderFactory.

Decoder is the abstract type encapsulating the decoding of Avro data. Decoder instances are created and configured with DecoderFactory.
