------------------------------------
Summary: Throwing more specific exception if an avro file has
currupted magic
Key: AVRO-2127
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2127
Project: Avro
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: java
Affects Versions: 1.8.2
Reporter: Dmitrii Bundin
Priority: Minor
Curently we have IOException thrown if an avro file has incorrect magic. For
example in case of empty avro file we have in DataFileStream#initialize
{code:java}
catch (IOException e) {
throw new IOException("Not an Avro data file.");
}
{code}
Therefore we lose EOFException being caught here. It also seems reasonable to
throw a subclass of IOException to be able to handle incorrect magic (in case
length are match) in user code.
