Oscar Westra van Holthe - Kind commented on AVRO-3276:
------------------------------------------------------

Good idea. How is the adjustment in the PR for AVRO-3275?

> 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
>            Priority: Major
>
> 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
