Ryan Blue commented on AVRO-1545:
---------------------------------
+1 (non-binding)
This looks fine to me. I think all of the places where PrimitiveSchema is
instantiated are correct and the tests pass.
> python bindings for avro discard customized type information for primitive
> types

> Key: AVRO-1545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1545
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: python
> Affects Versions: 1.7.6
> Reporter: Dustin Spicuzza
> Assignee: Dustin Spicuzza
> Fix For: 1.8.0
>
> Attachments: types.diff
>
>
> Given the following avsc file:
> {
> "type" : "record",
> "name" : "BrokenRecord",
> "namespace" : "whatever",
> "fields" : [ {
> "name" : "a_string",
> "type" : {
> "type" : "string",
> "avro.java.string" : "String"
> }
> } ]
> }
> The python schema parser discards the avro.java.string marker, which breaks
> interoperability with java. In schema.py, it discards the other property
> information and compresses the type down to just a 'string'.
> Patch attached against the 1.7.6 release.
