Hi, At the moment when generating POCO classes with Avrogen it doesn't take default values for array type into account. AVRO specs say it is allowed: https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/specification/#arrays I added this to lang\csharp\src\apache\main\Schema\ArraySchema.cs But since I don't have write access to the repository, I cannot create a pull request.
Add to ArraySchema class: public JToken DefaultValue { get; set; } Add to end of internal static ArraySchema NewInstance(JToken jtok, PropertyMap props, SchemaNames names, string encspace) var defaultValue = jtok["default"]; return new ArraySchema(schema, props, defaultValue); Change constructor: private ArraySchema(Schema items, PropertyMap customAttributes, JToken defaultValue = null) : base(Type.Array, customAttributes) { ItemSchema = items ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(items)); DefaultValue = defaultValue; } Add to end of protected internal override void WriteJsonFields(Newtonsoft.Json.JsonTextWriter writer, SchemaNames names, string encspace) if (null != this.DefaultValue) { writer.WritePropertyName("default"); this.DefaultValue.WriteTo(writer, null); } Regards, Robin ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Moody's monitors email communications through its networks for regulatory compliance purposes and to protect its customers, employees and business and where allowed to do so by applicable law.
