------------------------------------------
Summary: C++: schema parser cannot parse verbose primitive types
Key: AVRO-1346
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1346
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Skye Wanderman-Milne
The Avro C++ library's schema parser currently throws an "Unknown additional
Json fields" exception if a primitive type is not represented as a string
literal. As per http://avro.apache.org/docs/current/spec.html#schema_primitive,
primitive types can be defined as e.g. "\{type: string\}" or "string". Extra
attributes are allowed too, e.g.
"\{"avro.java.string":"String","type":"string"\}" (from the spec: "Attributes
not defined in this document are permitted as metadata, but must not affect the
format of serialized data.").
