>             Project: Avro
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: java
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.2
>         Environment: Java
>            Reporter: Douglas Britsch

> On line 253 of ReflectData.java the package is retrieved with:
> String space = c.getPackage().getName();
> getPackage is documented to be able to return null, and in practice does with 
> generated classes and in certain child classloader scenarios. A safer 
> alternative would be to derive the package by parsing the string returned 
> from the class's name:
> String space = c.getName().substring(0, name.lastIndexOf('.'); 
> Thanks
