-----------------------------------

             Summary: typo in documentation for "fixed" type
                 Key: AVRO-1612
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1612
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Peter Amstutz
            Priority: Minor


There appears to be a cut-and-paste error in the documentation for the "Fixed" 
type.  The "namespace" and "aliases" fields probably shouldn't be there.

Text of the current online documentation  (1.7.7):

https://avro.apache.org/docs/current/spec.html#Fixed

Fixed

Fixed uses the type name "fixed" and supports two attributes:

    name: a string naming this fixed (required).
    namespace, a string that qualifies the name;
    aliases: a JSON array of strings, providing alternate names for this enum 
(optional).
    size: an integer, specifying the number of bytes per value (required).

For example, 16-byte quantity may be declared with:

{"type": "fixed", "size": 16, "name": "md5"}
