Description
Right now in the GoraCompiler we do not support predefining field types based on ordering of .avsc as it is passed into the GoraCompiler.
This is supported in the Avro SpecificCompiler meaning that you can write schemas which inherit fields of custom type based on the compiler reading the custom type before it is used within the compilation and use of this type in another schema.
This feature is VERY useful when working with complex schema models and where you wish to separate out and maintain individual objects rather than explicitly nest them in large, difficult to maintain schema objects!
