Doug Cutting updated AVRO-1512:
-------------------------------
Attachment: AVRO-1512.patch
Here's a patch that implements the third option mentioned above, where Thrift
unions are implemented as Avro records.
> Error serializing TUnion with avro-thrift
> -----------------------------------------

> Attempting to serialize a Thrift union type (TUnion) with avro-thrift
> produces an error like the following:
> {noformat}
> org.apache.avro.AvroRuntimeException: Unknown datum type
> org.apache.avro.thrift.test.FooOrBar: <FooOrBar foo:foo>

> {noformat}
> Upon investigation it appears that ThriftData#isRecord intentionally does not
> accept TUnion types as Avro records and so GenericData is unable to determine
> an Avro type for the datum. However, ThriftData#getSchema does generate an
> Avro record schema for Thrift union types.
