> Avro Schemas should eagerly validate that class is SpecificRecord
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-28675
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-28675
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
> Affects Versions: 1.15.1
> Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.16.0
>
>
> The AvroDeserializationSchema supports both generic and specific records,
> with dedicated factory methods.
> It does however not validate in any way whether the classes passed to the
> factories methods are actually generic/specific records respectively, which
> can result in Flink attempting to read generic records (and failing with an
> NPE) even though the user told us to read specific records.
> We should validate this eagerly and fail early.
