Askar Safin created AVRO-3276:
---------------------------------
Summary: Spec wording on fullnames is not clear
Key: AVRO-3276
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3276
Project: Apache Avro
Issue Type: Bug
Components: spec
Reporter: Askar Safin
Consider this Avro scheme:
{
"type": "record",
"name": "a.b",
"fields": [
{
"name": "c",
"type": {
"type": "record",
"name": "d",
"fields": []
}
}
]
}
What is fullname of record "d"? "a.d" or "d"? I think Avro specification is
vague about this and should be fixed. When I attempt to interpret Avro spec
literally, I get to conclusion that the fullname is "a.d". But this contradicts
to my common sense.
I asked on mailing list and got answer "a.d" (
[https://lists.apache.org/thread/n0fjyv7c84zq21s9rwhffcxts72rmzq4] ). I still
think spec should be fixed
