Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-965:
-----------------------------------
The properties might be instead parsed in ProtocolBody. E.g. that might look
something like:
{code}
"{"
<IMPORT> ... { .... }
|
( SchemaProperty(props) )*
( NamedSchemaDeclaration(props) { ... } | MessageDeclaration(props) { ... }
"}"
{code}
Does that make sense?
> Enhance the IDL parser to allow properties for protocols and messages

> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: George Fletcher
> Priority: Minor
>
> Enhance the IDL parser to support arbitrary properties for protocol and
> message types. This will allow for attaching metadata to a protocol or
> message and can be used for versioning and in some cases language annotations.
