----------------------------------
Hi, [~busbey] Can you provide more details on the problem with hbase spark sql
handling of the Avro enum type?
> SparkSQL Avro serialization doesn't handle enums correctly
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-16247
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16247
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: spark
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Avro's generic api expects GenericEnumSymbol as the runtime type for
> instances of fields that are of Avro type ENUM. The Avro 1.7 libraries are
> lax in some cases for handling this, but the 1.8 libraries are strict. We
> should proactively fix our serialization.
> (the lax serialization in 1.7 fails for some nested use in unions, see
> AVRO-997 for details)
