Thanks for the extra context, Frank. I agree that it sounds like your problem comes from the conflict between your Jars and what comes with Spark. Its the same concern that makes everyone shudder when anything has a public dependency on Jackson. :)
What we usually do to get around situations like this is to relocate the problem library inside the shaded Jar. That way, Spark uses its version of Avro and your classes use a different version of Avro. This works if you don't need to share classes between the two. Would that work for your situation? rb On Mon, May 1, 2017 at 11:55 AM, Koert Kuipers <ko...@tresata.com> wrote: > sounds like you are running into the fact that you cannot really put your > classes before spark's on classpath? spark's switches to support this never > really worked for me either. > > inability to control the classpath + inconsistent jars => trouble ? > > On Mon, May 1, 2017 at 2:36 PM, Frank Austin Nothaft < > fnoth...@berkeley.edu> wrote: > >> Hi Ryan, >> >> We do set Avro to 1.8 in our downstream project.
