Bruce Mitchener commented on AVRO-492:
--------------------------------------
STRUCT_INT and STRUCT_LONG are only used in the process of handling floats and
doubles.
The interop testing just tests that the file could be read ... it won't test
that the data came through correctly currently. If there was an error in
something like integer/long encoding/decoding, it would show up due to the
other things that use that (like strings) that would fail were it wrong.
The interop tests need to be modified so that at least some of the fields being
serialized and read back in have the same value for each language and can be
verified in each test that reads in the interop data.
Make sense?
