Chris Dessonville updated AVRO-2771:
------------------------------------
Description:
While trying to upgrade from AVRO 1.8.2 to 1.9.X, we hit an unexpected
compilation error. The same code works fine in 1.8.2 and even sends over the
wire correctly, so it's definitely been supported historically. The issue
occurs when you put an {{error}} inside of a {{record}}. I've created a
project (further below) to show the issue.
The errors seen is this:

Commands you can use (defaults to 1.8.2 since that compiles):
{code:java}
mvn install -Davro.version=1.9.2

In terms of solutions, I'd love to see the old behavior restored. However, if
avro is moving to stop supporting an {{error}} in a {{record}}, then I'd
suggest that this be a schema validation/error then, instead of while compiling
Java.
NOTE: This is not unique to my/my company's use case - someone on SO also hit
