Hi Folks,
I am modeling the following Java as JSON in my avsc
/* list of {@link ExtractorSpec}s associated with this product type */
private List<ExtractorSpec> extractors = null;
...
{
"name": "extractors",
"type": {
"type": "array",
"items": "ExtractorSpec"
},
"doc": "A list of ExtractorSpecs associated with this product
type.",
"default": null
},
...
When I am compiling, as expected I am getting
./bin/gora goracompiler Product.avsc .
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.avro.SchemaParseException: Undefined
name: "ExtractorSpec".
The question I am asking is whether I should embed the ExtractorSpec as a
nested record? Or is there another way such as importing?
I've read a coule of threads [0] relating to IDL but this is not too
appealing as I *just* want my .avsc in JSON. I am trying to keeping things
as easy as possible for users.
I am using Avro 1.7.5 here.
Thank you very much in advance for any feedback.
Lewis
