Hi Team, OK, as things stands the 94 build is now building fine [0] with the exception of one test, namely
org.apache.gora.mapreduce.TestPersistentSerialization.testSerdeMultipleWebPages in gora-core Having debugged this locally, I see that things go to the wall within TestIOUtils.testSerializeDeserialize(T... objects) where we pass three WebPage objects with different fields set to dirty. The code within this method which seems to be the source of the problem is IOUtils.serialize(conf, dos , before, (Class<T>)before.getClass()); The output from the test states "null of map in field outlinks of org.apache.gora.examples.generated.WebPage" and I can confirm that this happens when we try to serialize the first WebPage object passed to the method. So is there a way we can work around null values for certain fields before (de)serializing? Once we get this last test sorted it's a free for all to get the other modules stable. It's important to note that the overwhleming degree of work is now behind us if we get the gora-core module stable.
