> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Serializers/Deserializers
> Affects Versions: 0.9.1
> Reporter: Keegan Mosley
> Assignee: nag y
> Priority: Minor

> An Avro schema which has a field reference to itself will create an infinite
> loop which eventually throws a StackOverflowError.
> To reproduce using the linked-list example from
> http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.6.1/spec.html
> create table linkedListTest row format serde
> 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.avro.AvroSerDe'
> with serdeproperties ('avro.schema.literal'='
> {
> "type": "record",
> "name": "LongList",
> "aliases": ["LinkedLongs"], // old name for this
> "fields" : [
> {"name": "value", "type": "long"}, // each element has a
> long
> {"name": "next", "type": ["LongList", "null"]} // optional next element
> ]
> }
> ')
> stored as inputformat
> 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerInputFormat'
> outputformat 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerOutputFormat';
