----------------------------------

             Summary: Make Avro core validate backwards compatibility issues 
with japicmp
                 Key: AVRO-4251
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-4251
             Project: Apache Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: build
            Reporter: Ismaël Mejía
            Assignee: Ismaël Mejía


Given how critical is Java API compatibility for the downstream ecosystem we 
should add a backwards compatibiliy check as part of the build system. The Avro 
Java implementation has never guaranteed full backwards compatibility but we 
have cared to rarely break it. With this if we decide to improve the APIs at 
least we can track the reasoning.
