Jeremy Kahn created AVRO-1316: --------------------------------- Summary: IDL code-generation generates too-long literals for very large schemas Key: AVRO-1316 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1316 Project: Avro Issue Type: Bug Components: java Reporter: Jeremy Kahn Priority: Minor
When I work from a very large IDL schema, the Java code generated includes a schema JSON literal that exceeds the length of the maximum allowed literal string ([65535 characters|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8323082/size-of-initialisation-string-in-java]). This creates weird Maven errors like: {{[ERROR] ...FooProtocol.java:[13,89] constant string too long}}. It might seem a little crazy, but a 64-kilobyte JSON protocol isn't outrageous at all for some of the more involved data structures, especially if we're including documentation strings etc. I believe the fix should be a bit more sensitivity to the length of the JSON literal (and a willingness to split it into more than one literal, joined by {{+}}), but I haven't figured out where that change needs to go.
