The reason I am asking is that if you have only 1 or a very few schema files you work with, the chance for name collision is very small or 0. As soon as you have many schemas to compile, like many projects do, the chance for a type name collision is getting higher since you are flattening the directory structure. This is the main reason many C# source codes are following that pattern of matching the namespace with the directory structure. Of course avrogen wont be really able to detect and report collisions, potentially causing the developer headache to figure out what went wrong, when the generated code does not even compile. So this was the reason behind my question about what use case you try to cover with this feature ;) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
