Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1599:
------------------------------------
Can you please provide a .proto file that demonstrates this? We need a
complete, reproducible unit test in order to fix this. With a .proto file and
the above fragment one should be able to create such a test. Thanks.
> Protobuf object newRecord fails with ClassNotFoundException

> Key: AVRO-1599
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1599
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.7.7
> Reporter: AlexandrosB
>
> When attempting to convert a Protobuf object to Avro I get a runtime error,
> stating that my Protobuf object class cannot be found.
> {noformat}
> Schema protoSchema =
> protodata.getSchema(Class.forName("instart.log.AccessLog$AccessLogEntry"));
> Object obj = protodata.newRecord(a, protoSchema); // --> FAILS
> {noformat}
> {noformat}
> exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException:
> java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Failed to load

> at

> at com.instart.decoder.All.main(All.java:88)
> Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Failed to load
> classinstart.log.Accesslog$AccessLogEntry
> at org.apache.avro.util.ClassUtils.forName(ClassUtils.java:60)

> {noformat}
> The class is in the classpath, but the outer class name is AccessLog not
> Accesslog. Following the code it seems that the getNamespace() method in the
> ProtobufData.java, converts the outer class name to camelCase, and, hence, it
> cannot be found later.
