Doug Cutting updated AVRO-182:
------------------------------

    Attachment: AVRO-182.patch

Attaching a new version of the patch.

This adds a new method, Schema#getFullName(), that returns the 
namespace-qualified name for named schemas.  This is used by 
GenericData.Record#equals() to efficiently check schema compatibility.  I've 
also updated a other places where fully-qualified names are used.

The equals methods for generated classes now check schema compatibility by 
using == on class names.

This patch now conflicts with the patch for AVRO-185.  Sigh.


> hashCode and equals are not consistent with compareTo

> Java's specific and generic APIs implement compareTo according to the schema, 
> where some fields might be ignored.  To be consistent, fields that are 
> ignored when comparing for ordering should also be ignored when comparing for 
> equality and for computing hashCodes.
