Wenchen Fan updated SPARK-30267:
--------------------------------
Affects Version/s: 3.0.0
> avro deserializer: ArrayList cannot be cast to GenericData$Array
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-30267
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-30267
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.4.4, 3.0.0
> Reporter: Steven Aerts
> Assignee: Steven Aerts
> Priority: Major
>
> On some more complex avro objects, the Avro Deserializer fails with the
> following stack trace:
> {code}
> java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to
> org.apache.avro.generic.GenericData$Array
> at
> org.apache.spark.sql.avro.AvroDeserializer.$anonfun$newWriter$19(AvroDeserializer.scala:170)
> at
> org.apache.spark.sql.avro.AvroDeserializer.$anonfun$newWriter$19$adapted(AvroDeserializer.scala:169)

> org.apache.spark.sql.avro.AvroDeserializer.$anonfun$converter$3(AvroDeserializer.scala:56)
> at
> org.apache.spark.sql.avro.AvroDeserializer.deserialize(AvroDeserializer.scala:70)
> {code}
> This is because the Deserializer assumes that an array is always of the very
> specific {{org.apache.avro.generic.GenericData$Array}} which is not always
> the case.
> Making it a normal list works.
> A github PR is coming up to fix this.
