Sean Busbey created HBASE-16247: ----------------------------------- Summary: 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) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
