Philip Zeyliger commented on AVRO-171:
--------------------------------------

+1; make sense.

* It might be nice to have a one-line comment about what "Names" is intended 
for in its javadoc.  I had to wrap my head around it a bit.

{noformat}
     for (Schema type : types.values())
       if (!resolved.contains(type))
         type.toJson(resolved, gen);
{noformat}
I think you're pushing the no-braces legibility with two lines inside the 
for-loop.

> Take a look at this code which is what happens in the SpecificResponder 
> handshake.
>         // server side
>         final Protocol protocol = 
> ReflectData.get().getProtocol(MyServiceIface.class);
>         final String string = protocol.toString();
>         // client side
>         Protocol.parse(string);
> If you have a compound object made of 
> class A {
>     B1 b1;
>     B2 b2;
> }
> class B1 {
>     X x;
> }
> class B2 {
>     X x;
> }
> class X {
>  int i;
> }
> Then the types will be built up by RefectData.createSchema()
> A, B1, X, B2
> This is then reversed by RefectData.getProtocol() so B1 has no forward 
> reference
> B2, X, B1, A.
> But this breaks B2
> org.apache.avro.SchemaParseException: Undefined name: "X"
