Sean Busbey updated AVRO-1676:
------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Do not treat enum symbols as immutable when deep copying
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1676
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1676
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.7.7
> Reporter: Mike Rodriguez
> Attachments: AVRO-1676.1.patch
>
>
> Enum types should be supported in GenericData.deepCopy() so that we can
> convert from (in memory) generics records to specifics records.
> Without this fix in place, it is non-trivial to attempt to create specific
> records from generic records if they may happen to have any nested enum data
> types.
> This issue has already been pointed out by Doug Cutting which can be
> referenced at \[1] and \[2].
> In \[2] specifically, Doug proposed the change that would fix this issue.
