>
> Through testing inter operations between JS code and C++ code I found that
> the JS implementation of AVRO supports aliases during schema resolution,
> however the C++ implementation does not.
>
> I implemented this in the C++ library and it seems to work fine. I also
> updated the test cases to test it out, the ONLY thing I did NOT fix is that
> one of the tests reduces the schema to canonical form - which removes the
> aliases, then tries resolution. This case currently fails - as expected.
> I was unsure how the maintainers would prefer to handle that issue so I
> didn't fix that test case.
