----------------------------------

             Summary: Int / Float cannot be decoded
                 Key: AVRO-1099
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1099
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: java
    Affects Versions: 1.6.3
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.7.3. Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers 
1.4.2.20120213
            Reporter: John Jenkins
             Fix For: 1.7.0


I am currently using a JSON library that is encoding 0 for a double to "0" 
instead of "0.0", without the quotes. First, I feel that "0" is a perfectly 
valid value for 0 as a double. But, I tried to code around it by changing the 
"type" of the field to "["double", "int"]", without the quotes and it is giving 
me this error:

Exception in thread "main" org.apache.avro.AvroTypeException: Expected 
start-union. Got VALUE_NUMBER_INT

If I change it to just "int", then it works for a few records until it reaches 
a double.

Thank you,

John
