----------------------------
Status: Open (was: Patch Available)
Splitting issue to separate the contentious part
> Perl API boolean type misencoded
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1470
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1470
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: perl
> Reporter: John Karp
> Assignee: John Karp
> Attachments: AVRO-1470.patch
>
>
> The boolean serialization is incorrect, as these new unit tests would
> indicate:
> {noformat}
> primitive_ok boolean => 0, "\x0";
> primitive_ok boolean => 1, "\x1";
> {noformat}
> When run they print:
> {noformat}
> # Failed test 'primitive boolean encoded correctly'
> # at t/02_bin_encode.t line 40.
> # got: '30'
> # expected: '00'
> # Failed test 'primitive boolean encoded correctly'
> # at t/02_bin_encode.t line 40.
> # got: '31'
> # expected: '01'
> {noformat}
> Secondly, when evaluating whether a 'boolean' branch should be taken in a
> union, the check for boolean-ness of the data is being done incorrectly,
> matching a regular expression against the wrong variable.
