sarutak opened a new issue, #7524:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/7524
### Describe the bug
Given we have an Avro format file whose schema contains nested records like
as follows.
```
{
"name": "record1",
"namespace": "ns1",
"type": "record",
"fields": [
{
"name": "f1",
"type": {
"name": "record2",
"namespace": "ns2",
"type": "record",
"fields": [
{
"name": "f1_1",
"type": "string"
}, {
"name": "f1_2",
"type": "int"
}, {
"name": "f1_3",
"type": {
"name": "record3",
"namespace": "ns3",
"type": "record",
"fields": [
{
"name": "f1_3_1",
"type": "double"
}
]
}
}
]
}
}, {
"name": "f2",
"type": "array",
"items": {
"name": "record4",
"namespace": "ns4",
"type": "record",
"fields": [
{
"name": "f2_1",
"type": "boolean"
}, {
"name": "f2_2",
"type": "float"
}
]
}
}
]
}
```
If we create a table from such an Avro format file and then scan the table,
it fails.
### To Reproduce
You can easily reproduce this issue using an Avro format file I prepared.
https://github.com/sarutak/arrow-testing/blob/nested-records/data/avro/nested_records.avro
Then, create a table from the file and scan the table.
```
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE mytbl STORED AS AVRO LOCATION '/path/to/avro_file';
SELECT * FROM mytbl;
```
