Huaisi Xu commented on AVRO-1797: --------------------------------- Thank you so much for this information!!.. I just realized avro started using systems Jansson library.. but I am working with a legacy version(1.7.x)... and does not have this function. I will see if I can cherry pick Jansson's \u0000 support and this one. I could take this, but I am not sure which apis the latest code use are affected... since I came from a much smaller scope.. :) > Schema parser should not ignore null character in default value for bytes > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-1797 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1797 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: Bug > Components: c > Affects Versions: 1.7.4 > Environment: Hive, Impala > Reporter: Huaisi Xu > Priority: Critical > > In https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.7.7/spec.html#schema_complex, "Default > values for bytes and fixed fields are JSON strings, where Unicode code points > 0-255 are mapped to unsigned 8-bit byte values 0-255.". The example provided > is: bytes || string || "\u00FF". > However, if I try to create a table schema with default bytes value for a > decimal field to be i.e. "\u0031", I will have "Illegal unquoted character > ((CTRL-CHAR, code 31)): has to be escaped using backslash to be included in > string value.". Anything less than 32 fails. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
