>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-405
>             Project: Parquet
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
>            Reporter: Ben Kirwin
>
> Sometime in the last few versions, a {{isStructOrUnion}} field has been added 
> to the `thrift.descriptor` written to the parquet header:
> {code}
> {
>     "children": [ ... ],
>     "id": "STRUCT", 
>     "structOrUnionType": "STRUCT"
> }
> {code}
> The current release now throws an exception when that field is missing  / 
> {{UNKNOWN}}). This makes it impossible to read back thrift data written using 
> a previous release.
