Java compiler/python parser don't conform to spec re object schema ------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AVRO-206 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-206 Project: Avro Issue Type: Bug Components: java, python Affects Versions: 1.2.0 Reporter: Patrick Hunt According to the spec (if I'm reading it correctly) -- Primitive type names are also defined type names. Thus, for example, the schema "string" is equivalent to: {"type": "string"} -- protocol A message has attributes: * a response schema; and -- however the following fails to compile/parse under java/python: { "protocol": "p1", "messages": { "m1": { "request": [], "response": {"type":"string"} } } } Exception in thread "main" org.apache.avro.SchemaParseException: Type not yet supported: string at org.apache.avro.Schema.parse(Schema.java:430) at org.apache.avro.Protocol.parseMessage(Protocol.java:275) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
