Thiruvalluvan M. G. commented on AVRO-952:
------------------------------------------

This is a valid patch. However, I'm almost done with porting Avro C++ to 
Miscrosoft Windows. CMake + Windows + Flex/Bison appear to be a problem 
combination. Moreover, the Schema parser based on Flex/Bison is not complete 
and produces no good error messages. I've implemented a new parser on top of 
Json parser we already have in Avro C++. We can then implement full compliance 
to Avro standard including namespaces, docs etc.

I'll file 2 Jiras one for getting rid of dependence on flex/bison and 
BoostRegex and another for porting to Microsoft Windows. With those patches we 
don't have to fix the Flex/Bison find problems.

> Configure should test for flex and bison. CMake has built in support for 
> those, we should use that. I've verified that it existed at 2.6, which is the 
> minimum CMake release that we currently require.
