AVRO-1977: Allow Imported Types As Items In Array
----
> Arrays of Imported Types in Schema Definition
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1977
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1977
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Reporter: Dillon Dukek
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.8.1
>
>
> Using the maven-plugin we can specify a list of schemas for import which can
> then be used as dependencies in subsequent schemas. However, this does not
> work if we want to use an imported type as the item type of an array field in
> a record. This currently does not work due to the way that the items node of
> the array field is passed back to the parse method in Schema.java here
> https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/Schema.java#L1306.
> The imported type will only be found if the type within the items node is
> passed to parse as it is for example here
> https://github.com/apache/avro/blob/master/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/Schema.java#L1306
> for the union type.
