> Key: CASSANDRA-4097
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4097
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 0.7.0
> Reporter: Andrew Swan
> Priority: Minor
>
> Cassandra has this dependency:
> {code:title=build.xml}...
> <dependency groupId="org.apache.cassandra.deps" artifactId="avro"
> version="1.4.0-cassandra-1">
> ...{code}
> Unfortunately this JAR file contains classes in the {{org.apache.avro}}
> package that are incompatible with classes of the same fully-qualified name
> in the current release of Avro. For example, the inner class
> {{org.apache.avro.Schema$Parser}} found in Avro 1.6.1 is missing from the
> Cassandra version of that class. This makes it impossible to have both
> Cassandra and the latest Avro version on the classpath (my use case is an
> application that embeds Cassandra but also uses Avro 1.6.1 for unrelated
> serialization purposes). A simple and risk-free solution would be to change
> the package declaration of Cassandra's Avro classes from {{org.apache.avro}}
> to (say) {{org.apache.cassandra.avro}}, assuming that the above dependency is
> only used by Cassandra and no other projects (which seems a reasonable
> assumption given its name).
