> AvroSerializer does not correctly instantiate GenericRecord

> Key: FLINK-18223
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18223
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
> Affects Versions: 1.10.1
> Reporter: Lorenzo Nicora
> Assignee: Lorenzo Nicora
> Priority: Major
> Labels: AVRO, pull-request-available
> Fix For: 1.11.0, 1.10.2
>
>
> {{AvroSerializer.createInstance()}} simply calls
> {{InstantiationUtil.instantiate(type)}} to create a new instance, also when
> type is GenericRecord.
> This fails with an exception, because a GenericRecord must be instantiated
> through {{GenericRecordBuilder}} but {{InstantiationUtil}} is not aware of it.
> {code:java}
> The class 'org.apache.avro.generic.GenericRecord' is not instantiable: The
> class is not a proper class. It is either abstract, an interface, or a
> primitive type.{code}
> This can be proven with this test
> {code:java}
> @Test
> public void shouldInstantiateGenericRecord() {
> org.apache.avro.Schema SCHEMA = new
> org.apache.avro.Schema.Parser().parse("{\"type\":\"record\",\"name\":\"Dummy\",\"namespace\":\"dummy\",\"fields\":[{\"name\":\"something\",\"type\":{\"type\":\"string\",\"avro.java.string\":\"String\"}}]}");
> AvroSerializer<GenericRecord> serializer = new
> AvroSerializer<>(GenericRecord.class, SCHEMA);
> serializer.createInstance();
> }
> {code}
