> I've tried to use union of null and the enum-type, but I've run into an issue
> with this approach when using the AvroOutputFormat. The following code
> summarizes my issue:
> {code}
> public void testDataWriteWithSchema() throws IOException {
> final DataFileWriter<Event writer =
> new DataFileWriter<Event>(new SpecificDatumWriter<Event>());
> writer.create(Event.SCHEMA$, new File("target/datafile-test.avro"));
> writer.append(getEvent());
> writer.close();
> }
> public void testDataWriteWithSchemaWithClass() throws IOException {
> final DataFileWriter<Event writer =
> new DataFileWriter<Event>(new SpecificDatumWriter<Event>(Event.class));
> writer.create(Event.SCHEMA$, new File("target/datafile-test.avro"));
> writer.append(getEvent());
> writer.close();
> }
> {code}
> When I don't pass in the Event.class to SpecificDatumWriter (the first test
> method), the above test fails with the following exception:
> {noformat}
> Not in union ["null",
> {"type":"enum","name":"Suit","namespace":"foo","symbols":["SPADES","CLUBS","HEARS","DIAMONDS"]}]:
> SPADES
> at org.apache.avro.generic.GenericData.resolveUnion(GenericData.java:382)
> at
> org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumWriter.write(GenericDatumWriter.java:67)
> at
> org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumWriter.writeRecord(GenericDatumWriter.java:100)
> at
> org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumWriter.write(GenericDatumWriter.java:62)
> at
> org.apache.avro.generic.GenericDatumWriter.write(GenericDatumWriter.java:54)
> at org.apache.avro.file.DataFileWriter.append(DataFileWriter.java:245)
> {noformat}
> Scott Carey's reply:
> {quote}
> This looks like a bug. Can you file a ticket? In the first case, the
> constructor is not
> initializing the SpecificData object, which means that it is using
> GenericData.resolveUnion()
> instead of SpecificData.resolveUnion().
> The empty param constructor in SpecificDatumWriter should be
> public SpecificDatumWriter() \{ super(SpecificData.get()); }
> public SpecificDatumWriter() { }
