Alexandre Normand updated AVRO-1146:
------------------------------------
Description:
I'm using avro Reflection API for a specific use case and I have a bug where if
the object I'm trying to get the Schema for has a field of type BigDecimal.
Because BigDecimal extends java.lang.Number, we try to create a primitive
schema for it but fail doing so with the following error:
*{{org.apache.avro.AvroRuntimeException: Not a Specific class: class
java.math.BigDecimal}}*
I'm attaching a unit test that shows the problem with a basic type that has a
single BigDecimal field.
This basically also applied to all subclasses of java.lang.Number that are not
primitives.
