> [Java] Support avro core functionality on Android
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-2863
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2863
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: java
> Affects Versions: 1.9.0, 1.9.1, 1.9.2
> Environment: Android 5.0.2 (API 21) up to the latest Android version,
> using Android Gradle plugin version 4.0.0.
> Reporter: Joris Borgdorff
> Assignee: Ryan Skraba
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 1.11.0
>
> Time Spent: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> One of our Android apps uses Avro to communicate with the server. Up to
> vision 1.8.2, it used a subset of the Avro library that was needed to perform
> this communication. It does not use any of the compress codecs and keeps the
> use of reflection to a minimum. Since Avro 1.9.0 a few blocking
> incompatibilities have been introduced. This prevents us from using any of
> the developments in Avro version 1.9.x, including the updated Jackson
> dependency.
> org.apache.avro.Schema uses ThreadLocal.withInitial, only available with
> Android API 26 (Android 8.0)
> org.apache.avro.reflect.ReflectUtils uses Method.invokeExact, not available
> on Android
> org.apache.avro.reflect.ReflectData uses java.lang.ClassValue, not available
> on Android
> I've experimented with excluding the org.apache.avro.reflect from the
> distribution (except MapEntry, which is used elsewhere) and providing my own
> java.lang.ClassValue implementation. This resolves all build and runtime
> issues for Android API 26 and above except for ThreadLocal.withInitial, which
> cannot be circumvented.
> For now the Android app will keep using 1.8.2, but we would prefer to use
> 1.9.2 or later.
