-------------------------------------------
Ok, I'm happy to test the AVRO-987 changes on my use cases, I'll keep an eye on
that.
> Fallback to thread context class loader in SpecificData.getClass()

> Key: AVRO-1425
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1425

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.7.5
> Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: AVRO-1425.patch

>
> While trying to implement a simple Avro serializer that works in an OSGi
> environment I stumbled on the fact that SpecificData.getClass() only uses its
> own ClassLoader. Letting it fallback to the thread context class loader
> (TCCL) makes it more OSGi-friendly, as callers can then set the TCCL as
> needed.
> AVRO-987, which hasn't been applied and is now stale, is about making Avro
> fully OSGi compliant and would fix my issue as well, but I tried to aim for
> the minimal changes that work for me (patch follows).
> My use case is at https://github.com/bdelacretaz/avro-osgi-test - at commit
> e3b4c47839 there my test passes with the attached patch applied to avro trunk
> revision 1552851.
