Hi,
Please try to reproduce the problem in a simple (commandline) Java
application (i.e. without Flink and such, just Avro).
If you can reproduce it with Avro 1.8.0 then please file a bug report
(preferable with the simplest reproduction path you can come up with) via.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO/
Thanks
