Michael A. Smith reassigned AVRO-621:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: Michael A. Smith
> Python library allows for incorrect field names in schema validation
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-621
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-621
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: python
> Affects Versions: 1.3.3
> Reporter: Gavin M. Roy
> Assignee: Michael A. Smith
> Priority: Major
>
> When using the schema.parse() function, you can pass in fields with the name
> parameter violating the [A-Za-z_] specified for field names. As the c
> library (and others I assume) strictly check for this, it is possible to
> create a scenario where the schema is incompatible across languages.
> For example, one can make a field: {"name": "15_miles", "type": "null"} which
> would be invalid elsewhere due to the name.
