various number of records in records

[Marius]

Hi,

i want to put some data into an avro file, however in my case it doesn't 
work...


{
  name:fooList,
  type:record,
  fields: [
{name:count,type:int},
{name:foo,type: {
  type:record,
  name:fooData,
  fields:[
{name:ids,type:int}
  ]
}
}

  ]
}

I want to put exactly one count (the number of ids) in it and a variable 
number of ids... However i can only append one count and one id...
I'm new to avro and JSON so i'm not sure if my idea is right or if i 
have to rewrite my code...

BTW i tried to google that but i couldn't find anything ;)

Thanks and Greetings

Marius

The type of foo should be an array, not a record.
